Note: I know this one's pretty much late but it appears this trip was decided at the last minute since it was barely announced, and is only being held on one day instead of two, a weekday at that. Sorry for not noticing earlier. Where:Morongo Casino Resort & Spa 49500 Seminole Drive Cabazon, CA 92230 (951) 849-3080 When:March 4 (Tues) 6:00 - 10:00 PM

UGH I'm so mad I missed the Morongo Casino try-out. If we go by the past few years, then that's the last SoCal tryout for a while, huh?

Probably. They start moving towards the East coast around May when the weather's warmer, and the Wheelmobile itself stays at the Sony Pictures Studios when it's not traveling, so SoCal is probably one of the first stops they usually make when they take a tour.
Sorry you missed it, and I sincerely apologize for not reporting on it. I glanced at their Facebook post about it but I didn't read the whole thing because I thought they were referring to the one being held this weekend. I've never heard of a Wheelmobile event being held on only one day...or a Tuesday.

^ They held a midweek one at Morongo last year, remember? I was there.

I just wish it wasn't such a duck hunt to try and get on the show, at least J! and Millionaire have well-planned in advance audition schedules. Is it pretty much just Wheelmobile or bust to get on?

Right but don't they usually contact you only if there's going to be a Wheelmobile in your area?

^ There are two levels of audition. The contestant forms and Wheelmobile have the same function: picking people who make it to the second audition.

But isn't the second audition usually in the same Wheelmobile city? In other words, the callbacks from Morongo yesterday, wouldn't they be today or later this week in Morongo?

The callbacks are in the same cities, but don't happen until at least a couple months after the Wheelmobile event, and sometimes they do the final auditions without a Wheelmobile event, only picking online applicants in the area. Just yesterday they had one in Seattle.
And Wheel said on Twitter yesterday that they're going to announce all future Wheelmobile destinations on there, so that's a step up from having to search all over the Internet.

Thanks, you guys, sorry for all the questions. Yeah, I never understood the need to be so secretive (to a degree) about where the Wheelmobile is going, but I suppose they don't want to get more swamped than they probably already do.

It looks like they brought back FOTF though since you can submit a video online. They might go through those and send some invites to some in the socal area with the Wheelmobile attendees.

That's right. You should definitely try that as soon as possible if you want to score a final audition in SoCal, hanzz. Good luck. (And don't worry about asking questions. That's one reason why we exist: to answer them. )

I think the policy to not disclose the Wheelmobile location easily was to discourage people from spending a fortune to travel multiple states on odds that are extremely low of getting called up. Social media put a lot of cracks in that dam so I'm guessing they figured to just open the flood gates since those determined would find the locations anyway.
