Spring is here, so here's some Spring Break related episodes for you reading pleasure.
S14, EPISODE #2671: SPRING BREAK
Airdate: 3/17/97
Opening up the week:
Randy Bell: Los Angeles. Involved in sales in Culver City who enjoys sports and chess.
Ron Zielinski: Murfreesboro, TN. Tractor-trailer operator who does volunteer work for the youth action league and also enjoys outdoor adventure sports (but he hasn't been doen the Buffalo River).
Becki Regan: Arvada, CO. University of Northern Colorado junior who's studying to be an elementary education teacher. She's also a waitress who enjoys volleyball.
And yes, spinning the wheel is no easy task.
Becki IDs the fake reporter as YOSEMITE SAM DONALDSON.
PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: Aer Lingus trip to IRELAND via the Irish Tourist Board ($2,700)
That prize wedge is misplaced on $550 while the $10,000 is located on the $250 near the red $900.
Does Becki know what the LEPRECHAUN'S TREASURE is?
It is indeed a pot of gold.
Patrick admitted the mistake he made last round about the SURPRISE wedge and removed that from the wheel since the player that was supposed to pick it up (Ron) didn't win the round.
JACKPOT ROUND
Randy recalls STAR WARS BECOMES TOP-GROSSING FILM.
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $10,900
Happy St. Patrick's Day from Wheel of Fortune!
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN: $250
Dunno if Randy's a FINICKY EATER, but he gets that one as well.

LETTER PICKED: H
RSTLNE is stingy:
DMCA gives Becki the same amount...
...and she misses the bottom saying FRENZY and PANIC. It was IN A JIFFY and there goes the Disney World & Boat package.
BECKI'S FINAL TOTAL: $5,300 (all cash; ineligible for Final)
Patrick is not wearing any green at all. Well, he is Polish.
Full credit roll in the end.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: Really modest in terms of winnings, but not too bad otherwise. 5/10
