Hi everyone!
I came across this site when I was searching for info. about the next step in the audition process after going to a Wheelmobile event in June. I ended up getting called up to the stage, getting the final audition callback two weeks later, and, not a week after that, got an e-mail with the info. that I was selected to be a contestant AND my tape date! Other members' audition/contestant stories and advice was really helpful, so I figured I'd share mine. I taped my show on July 30th (Halloween Week) and have been doing write-ups of each stage of the process (finishing up my Tape Day recap now). I'll post in the Spinning Stories section once it's all complete! |

Welcome aboard, and congrats on taping, ricky! Make sure you PM one of the admins (Prizes, cu2010, or Mario) before you post anything about your special day, just to make sure it's all clear of any spoilers. |

Congrats, ricky! Welcome aboard! Two things: one, do you know when your show is scheduled to air? And two, because some people around here like to know, which color position did you play from? |

Yup! My show will air Thursday, October 29th, 2015. And I was the red position.  I had wanted the yellow position, just because I wanted to be in the middle (and thought I might get nervous next to Pat!), but it was fine. Plus I got to talk to him about the funny technical problem that happened when our taping began. :lol: |
