Airdate: March 2, 1995
From Walt Disney World in Orlando, it's America's game! Wheeeeeel Of Fortune!
A new trio? So soon?
Alan Backe: Senior at Georgia Tech majoring in chemical engineering, writes for the campus newspaper, from Charlotte, NC
Jim Carroll: Consumer products specialist for best and biggest inline skate manufacturer, announces for two professional sports teams, from Bloomington, MN
Doris McGoy: Coaches third and fourth grade girls soccer, from Arlington, TX
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. We are playing for cash, in case you forgot.
No flash photography! - Pat
Alan solves BLOCK THAT KICK IN THE PANTS.
Get past the roadblock for a ski holiday at Smuggler's Notch Vermont with Hart Skis (labeled SKI) worth $4,460.
Don't let the Wheel hold you down. Go for the $2,500 space.
Jim looked at the wrong arrow on his first spin.
Jim solves OFFENSIVE & DEFENSIVE PLAYERS.
There's plenty to help you get past their defenses now, including the $3,500 and one-third $10,000 space!
Jim guesses GOD OF THE SEX OR PLANET. A lovely thought, according to Pat, but incorrect. (Oddly, the buzzer sounds.)
Doris correctly solves GOD OF THE SEA OR PLANET, and Pat remarks that Jim has only been married a year. How would Jim have answered the clue? Well, it's up to Doris for a $500 bonus.
She says Pluto. I hope Alan can get this one.
He knows it's Neptune.
End of story. Moving on!
The $5,000 space just won't stop bragging about itself.
DING DING! DING DING!
The party's almost done. Pat now gives the Wheel a Final Spin, with consonants worth...$250 a piece.
Jim: T (x2) ($500)
Jim guesses CORNERING THE TARGET.
Doris: H ($250)
Alan: C ($900)
Alan solves CORNERING THE MARKET, and he does manage to keep the surprise! It's an RCA home theater system worth $2,499.
BONUS ROUND:
All the prizes are still there from Monday, including a sketch from Disney himself!
Alan could try to win something, and he will pick the H. We'll try this final puzzle:
RSTLNE gives him...
He might have it with MPCO:
Could it be a POLICEMAN? Yes it could...
...and finally with a win, he takes the Perugina holiday in Italy worth $22,000! A good treat at $30,299, and how about more? He's coming back again!
