‘Wheel of Fortune’ moderator Ryan Seacrest accused a terrible mistake that cost a player almost $ 50,000

Ryan Seacrest won a number of fans on “Wheel of Fortune”, although he replaces initial doubts about his ability to replace Pat Sajak. Nevertheless, it ended up in hot water over some mistakes and the way it carries himself. Shortly after his debut, Seakrest was shot because he had cost a candidate almost $ 50,000 due to a silly hit.

After broadcasting the episode of Wheel of Fortune on December 18, Seacrest stood on social media against the correct bonus puzzle of a player. As the viewers know, the participants are on the clock to solve the final puzzle, and if they no longer have time, they lose the price hidden in the golden envelope.

As a result, the candidate Noel Ballacco drove through the games, distributed prices and more than $ 13,000 in cash. She managed to win up to a hundred thousand dollars more until the bonus round, in which she had the chance.

With her lover on the stage, she turned the bike and collected the bonus envelope. For the final bonus puzzle, Ballaco selected the “People” category, which is relatively easier than in some other categories. In addition to the standard letters “Rstlne”, she chose “G” and “L” as her first consonants. Although “L” was standard, Seacrest could not see the error. The player corrected it himself and chose the other letters “M”, I and “C.” Finally, the board read “Gre_t _i_s” so that it can solve it.

When the timer started ten seconds, Ballanco’s first assumption was “great children”. As it turned out, it was the right answer and she had surprisingly solved the riddle in a few seconds. While Vanna White and everyone else noticed it, Seacrest noticed quite slowly when registering the answer. In an overreaction, Seakrest jumped the gun and revealed the contents of the golden envelope even before the camera cut it. He just shouted “yes, yes” and put his hands over his mouth and imitated the player. He then started an exaggerated celebration while congratulating Ball Accco on winning $ 63,100.

Although everything went smoothly, fans went on social media to blow up the host for the mistake. In the comment area of ​​the YouTube video, a spectator wrote @Austinthesuperiorvyonder2021: “I definitely heard an L before the M. was not counted? Because of the original package. But seriously, Ryan, please remind the participant in the bonus round That the letter that is part of the original package that you accidentally call is part of the original package when you accidentally call the letter.

In addition, a user wrote in the unofficial Reddit forum of the show: “Has someone else caught, she said the correct answer, but Ryan initially didn’t call it correct? She had to say it a second time before it was confirmed.

Several users agreed that it was a major failure of the young new host. “When Vanna started nodding, but Ryan said nothing when I thought she was screwing it up. He was also a little delayed by Vanna, which obviously points out that they are correct, but never to the point have to say again “.

On YouTube people quickly pointed the same thing. “She said” great children “in the first assumption. How did the bonus land there?” @Codyfairslee asked.
