Wheel of Fortune puzzle upsets fans [1]

['Rob Beschizza']

Date: 2023-04-27

Can you solve this Wheel of Fortune puzzle? It stumped contestants ("joining the cra… oops!", offered one) and Yahoo News writes that fans of the show were "outraged."

"#Angela on @WheelofFortune got a piece of CRAP bonus round. I have NEVER heard of '████ ██ ███' before in my ENTIRE life. Can we get some kind of sponsor to give this woman a prize?" one Twitter user wrote. "What the hell kind of puzzle was that??? Come on now. ridiculous!!"

The U.K. game show Countdown has a similar round, in which contestants vie to find the longest legitimate words from randomly-selected letters, and it often results in things even more outrageous as they go up one by one.
