Hi Everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself. I've been a game show fan for practically all of my 40 something years. I've been watching Wheel since Woolery and of course, like everyone, solve the puzzles at home before all of the contestants do. Realizing that I could simply audition for Wheel by creating a 1 minute or less video, I spent probably 8-10 hours producing said video, trying to cram as much facts about myself as I could without overdoing it, while learning some cool features of Adobe Premiere at the same time 
I submitted my video on 2/1 with the hopes they'd love it so much I'd get a response the following Monday, haha... Nothing, however, the following weekend I checked my Yahoo's spam folder (desperate times call for desperate measures!), and lo and behold, the email was there a week after I submitted it, inviting me down to the final auditions in Cape Coral Florida on 2/21. Oddly enough, there apparently was a Wheel Mobile event in Cape Coral back in December and I'm sure the majority of people for the finals were chosen from that event. Still, what if I waited one more week to send it in? I probably would have blown my chance for a while! I know the game play back and front, I know every strategy out there - I just hope my nerves don't get the best of me and I crawl into a shell or something... For people that know me, I'm the life of the party - I just hope I can envision the 50 or so people there that we're all friends and we know each other. Any other thoughts are appreciated! Nice to be a part of this community - I've been reading through the posts and it's crammed with awesome stuff!
