Last time, I gave you a near-record preformance. This time, I respond "Right Back At 'Ya"... if you know what I mean.
Air Date: November 9, 1988
Look at this studio, filled with glamorous merchendise! Fabulous and exciting bonus prizes, including... as an extra wheel prize, this senstational fur coat! And a $55,000 home on wheels! The 28' Winnebago Cheapton! And this sleek, racey $43,000 Corvette convertable! Plus, thousands of dollars in cash, Over $218,000 just waiting to be won on WHEEL OF FORTUNE! And now, here's your host... Pat Sajak!
Pat jokes that he has been named Mr. Hollywood.
Here are today's contestants:
Randy Reid is from Reseda, CA. Test engineer for NASA. Married. Into renaissance dance, music, and space technology.
Helen Hicks is from Clearwater, FL. Retired bookkeeper. Has many grandchildren.
Valerie Racoia(
) Even Pat was unsure on how to say her last name. is from Staten Island, NY. Temporarily retired, 8 month-old son Christopher. Rooting for Mets.
Alright, let's start out the night. $1000 is the TDV on the wheel right now. As always, I apologize if I mention the color and value of a wedge, but there are two on the actual wheel.
