Instead: SELF-POTATO. January 4, 2010: Perhaps the biggest example of stupidity on Wheel involved the puzzle REGIS PHILBIN & KELLY RIPA. You'd Expect: That even three military servicemen, who maybe don't get to watch TV that much while on active duty, would still recognize two people who have long since become household names. The greatest Wheel of Fortune fail is when the answer was clearly 'self-portrait' and a woman named Lolita's brain shorted out for a second and she said 'self-potato, sorry.' That 'sorry' meant. Mar 20, 2013 Wheel of Fortune: Self Potato. Family Feud: Older = Bigger. Price Is Right: Dime Beats a Nickel. Family Feud: That’s Not a Name. Wheel of Fortune: There’s No K. EmRata STUNS in. But Michael Newman, who recently accomplished the feat on an episode of “Wheel of Fortune,” feels a bit conflicted about his windfall: he’s the contestant who gave the correct response of. I seriously thought that there would be a $100K loss or that there would be some really bad playing here thanks to chilidogwof hunting me that the ep wasn’t gonna be pretty, but I was thankfully wrong. Guess the wheel wasn’t going to act nice today. I love Pat’s remark to Jim at the beginning of the second round.

From its humble beginnings as a daytime show in the 1970s to its cult following today, Wheel of Fortune has earned the nickname “America’s Game.”

However, a recent puzzle has the internet scratching its collective noggin.

A podcast host who goes by the Twitter handle “Twitter’s Good Boy” shared a screen shot of the unfortunate puzzle, which has had thousands of likes, retweets and guesses.

Along with “Suck it dork,” incorrect answers ran the gamut from this…

… to this, as well as a few guesses not suitable for all audiences.

PICK AT PORK

The actual correct answer was “Back at work,” which the contestant guessed in under one minute.

There was the time contestant Kevin Haas chose a single incorrect letter, vastly altering the Tennessee Williams classic to “Streetcar Naked Desire.”

And was promptly ridiculed…

Dude on Wheel of Fortune had to solve this:

A STREETCAR NA_ED DESIRE

He asked for a K.

Haas was a good sport about the whole thing. He released a statement, in which he said, in part:

“I am happy I brought so many smiles to you all, and so I will smile with you and look back onto this moment and join you in the laughs. That my friends, is the naked truth.”

Avid viewers of The Wheel may also recall “Popsicle Bike.”

Then there was the poor, panicked player who thought “Self-potato” somehow made sense.

RT @Caissie: A lady on Wheel of Fortune just guessed the answer to SELF-PO_T_A_T was 'Self-Potato.'

However, perhaps no Wheel of Fortune fail was as awesomely awkward as the poor contestant who botched not one, not two but three puzzles in one show.

Of course, it is easy to play armchair contestant, thinking you could win every round. According to the game show’s FAQs, more than 1 million people vied for a Wheel audition last year while fewer than 600 people actually made it onto the show.
