The 'Wheel of Fortune' contestant Khushi was faced with an extremely easy question, and her wrong answer stunned everyone.
A person sitting in the audience broke the rules of the contest. They could be heard screaming 'What?!' in the background once the contestant made the error that cost her a trip to Antigua.
Monday night's episode raised questions about the contestants and their ability to answer easy questions out forth in the competition.
Twitterati is shocked at the Wheel of Fortune contestant's inability to give the correct answer
Audience and viewers of the famous show expected Khushi to give an answer that easy quickly. However, her inability to do so spiked a trending hashtag online with people calling her out for zoning out at the price of a free vacation.
Wheel of Fortune contestant "zone(s) out" and leaves audience baffled
Khushi, a 'Teen Week' contestant on the well-known show, was playing the game. She correctly guessed the letter 'H', winning a round of applause.
The round's category was Food & Drinks.
While she 'zoned out', the board read, 'FRE_H TROPICAL FRUIT.'
Legendary host of Wheel of Fortune, Pat Sajak, said:
“Solve it or spin it, or… but do something quickly."
The contestant spun the wheel, and the helm of the wheel landed at a whooping price of $650.
Khushi quite unsurely said:
“I’ll go with a G.”
Just then, the “wrong answer” buzzer goes off, and an audience member interjects by screaming, "What!' incredulously.
The shock factored in when instead of giving the obvious reply, she hesistantly chose to say 'G'. The audience was flabbergasted by the mishap.
The contestant right after Khushi, named Juliana, won the contest by giving the correct answer - an obvious 'S'. This isn't the first time a Wheel of Fortune contestant has acted absurdly on stage. Several cases have gone down in history.
One such was with Ben Tucker, a contestant who slammed host Pat Sajak for not guessing the correct answer. In the 'Fun and Games' category, the answer was 'taking a jog'. Tucker argued that he didn't categorize jogging and working out as fun, and hence couldn't have possibly guessed it.
He followed the comment by giving a sarcastic thumbs up that left Twitter going insane.
Last December, a contestant named Kate lost thousands of dollars for not guessing the answer 'fixing a leak' in the 'What Are You Doing?' category of Wheel of Fortune.
She kept guessing 'raking a leaf' or 'moving a leaf' but couldn't narrow it down to the correct answer. When asked what happened, she said:
“I kept thinking of doing something else with a leak and I didn’t think that was it.”
Host Sajak looked straight at the camera and dropped his cards. "Excuse me, these get heavy sometimes," he told the audience.
Wheel of Fortune is watched by thousands of people and Khushi's inability to answer easy questions is trending online with numerous people feeling sorry for her while the other half makes fun of her for not knowing such a simple answer.
