Wheel of Fortune often provides great fun to its viewers with clever puzzles to mull over with your family members. But the game show gets not so hilarious when there are a thousand of dollars on the line and one mistake gets too costly. This is exactly what happened to one unlucky contestant, who lost out on a grand prize, but gained Internet’s support.
Lucky streak that ended badly.
Laryn Nelson, a school principal from Atlanta, was on fire during her Wheel of Fortune run that didn’t end exactly as she expected. During the episode, Nelson seemed to be enjoying herself quite a bit and racked up a total $24,250 in winnings. She gladly stepped up to complete the bonus round, which is where her troubles began.
The puzzle presented to Laryn read “_ _T_INING M_ G_ _LS”. The contestant quickly figured out the “MY GOALS” part, but was struggling to zero in on the verb. She suggested that the solution was “PITCHING MY GOALS”, but was seemingly incorrect. Once the time ran out, the answer was revealed as “OBTAINING MY GOALS”.
Nelson was visibly frustrated with the solution and said: “Oh my goodness. Alright. Alright. That’s okay. I’m gonna do that one day though, obtaining my goals.” The host, Pat Sajak, then went on to reveal that the grand prize that Laryn could’ve taken home was a brand-new car, which made the contestant scream frustration. At least, she did win $24,250.
Fans online call out the nonsensical puzzle.
After the show aired, many Wheel of Fortune viewers took to social media to voice their confusion over the puzzle presented to Laryn Nelson, saying that no one uses the phrase “obtaining my goals”.
And in order to avoid that happening to you, if you ever end up on Wheel of Fortune, we offer you a selection of riddles that’ll get your brain in shape. You can exercise your thinking chops here.
Singеr Неlрs Тhоsе Idеntifying Аs Аnimаls Вy Lеаving Littеr Вохеs In Тhе Rеstrооms
If there is one thing that people seem to love online, it’s seeing something controversial. The moment that they have the opportunity to argue about something, they are going to jump in with both feet and start a debate.
This includes one artist on TikTok who has sparked a lot of controversy with her gender-defying activities. Dorian Electra has gotten a lot of attention on that social media platform, but now she has taken things to a new level and is going completely viral.
That United States Singer has gotten the attention she desires on TikTok by putting litter boxes in public restrooms. She does this when she is on tour because she wants to include everyone who is at her concerts.
Most of the people who go to these concerts are gay, but she doesn’t want to leave anyone out. She decided to post this on TikTok, announcing that litter boxes would be provided in all bathrooms on their tour for any concertgoers who identify as animals.
It even went on to say: “Now that’s inclusivity in action.” She gave a big thumbs up.
As she walks up to the bathroom door, you can see that she is standing outside of an ‘all gender restroom’. She takes a sharpie and crosses out the word gender and writes in the word species.
That is when she carries the litter box into the bathroom and puts it on the floor next to the toilet. In a video posted later, they say that they will be cleaning the litter boxes after each show.
This video sparked a lot of controversy and people were arguing on both sides of the debate. It will be interesting to see where this one goes next.
