Fans Outraged After ‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Refuses To Give Prize To Woman Who Answered Correctly
### Fans Protest Over “Wheel of Fortune” Contestant’s Lost $40,000
Enraged fans of “Wheel of Fortune” are protesting after contestant Megan, a high school choir director from California, was denied $40,000 for what they believe was a correct answer.
During the bonus round, Megan was given the phrase “_ N’R _ _ _” in the “Living Thing” category. She adjusted the letters to “P_N_’ RC _ D” and guessed “Pink Orchid” as the timer ended. However, host Pat Sajak revealed the correct answer as “Pink Orchid,” and Megan only received $14,007 instead of the $40,000 prize.
Fans took to social media to express their outrage, insisting Megan clearly said “Pink Orchid” and deserved the full prize. This incident adds to recent criticisms of the show, such as a disputed rhyme in the “Rhyme Time” category.
