A fortunate “Wheel of Fortune” contestant made history on the show Tuesday by being the first candidate ever to win a brand new house on the show.
In what may be in a real sense the greatest prize the show has at any point seen, 6th grade teacher Laura Trammell appeared on the show and made it right to the bonus round, where a lucky spin and an clever puzzle solve procured her a brand new pad in a Latitude Margaritaville community.
They reports that Trammell went into the bonus round with a generally great $23,690 in prize money. The Mission Viejo, Calif. resident was in the perfect place at the perfect time as “Wheel of Fortune” is as of now doing its “Home Sweet Home” giveaway in partnership with Latitude Margaritaville and Minto to offer the opportunity for challengers to acquire a home in the last round of play.
In the wake of turning the envelope wheel, Trammell correctly solved the last puzzle, which read “I caught a glimpse.” That’s when host Pat Sajak opened her envelope to reveal she was the lucky winner of the top prize of the evening. Her new home is valued at $375,000, carrying her total prize money to $398,690.
“This is just nuts,” a paralyzed Sajak told a significantly more stunned Trammell, who was speechless going into the commercial break.
At the point when the episode returned, she’d breath a little bit yet noted she was “still in shock.”
“I am beyond excited, I’m still in shock. I still can’t believe it just happened.”
While moment ended up being a celebratory one, the host noticed that it nearly finished in catastrophe for his co-have, Vanna White.
At the point when Trammell won her prize, the “Wheel of Fortune” set was blasted with confetti from canons that were set up to add a little show to the event. Be that as it may, it appears to be one of those groups got close to White.
“First thing, I have to tell you that, when you won, Vanna was running across the stage, and the confetti came out, and you got whacked in the head by a clump of confetti” Sajak noted.
“Thank goodness, it wasn’t my eye,” she said.
“You could’ve put your eye out!” Sajak exclaimed.
