Wheel of Fortune: Season 23
October 26, 2005
College Road Trip (Day 3)
I believe this season had the show's first-ever "College Road Trip" week! Nice to see college students from across the country (and not just in one area) come together to play this game. Two days ago, Lauren Kaufman BROKE THE MAINGAME RECORD with $66,350 cash and prizes! She didn't get the Bonus Round though. Let's hope tonight's students can really follow up to that in a good way.
The college students do something really cool: David says "Hey Eagles", Brittany says "Hey Buffaloes", and Amy says "Hey Bears"! Then they all say, "Wheel's on!"
No animations tonight, sorry.

PLAYER INFO
David Smith: David's a junior at Emory University in Atlanta, but he's from Buffalo Grove, IL. He's majoring in political science and history and minoring in Judaic studies. David wants to be an entertainment lawyer, but for now, he's in the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity!
Amy Sakakibara: Amy's a senior at UC Berkeley (oh yeah!), but she's from Chula Vista, CA (near San Diego). She's majoring in business administration and just came back from studying abroad at Oxford! She's also a pledge mom of the Christian sorority Alpha Delta Chi!
Brittany Burns: Brittany's a senior at the University of Colorado and is from Boulder, CO. She's majoring in US history and secondary education and hopes to become an inner-city high school teacher! For now, she loves to snowboard and waits tables.
