Do you have Instagram? Do you enjoy sharing your Wheel of Fortune love to your followers? Then, participate in Wheel of Fortune's "Wheel Watcher Spirit" Instagram Contest. Select participants may even receive Wheel of Fortune swag. All you have to do is upload a picture showing your Wheel of Fortune spirit, whether it be a Wheel selfie, million-dollar smile, Pat zinger, Vanna look-alike, Jim impressions or other ideas you can come up with. Using the hashtag #WheelWatcher and tagging wheeloffortune in the caption, they'll be posting their favorites and several participants will receive some merchandise. It looks like the contest starts 9/14 until 9/27, so get thinking! More information can be found here: Wheel Watcher Spirit
Also, Wheel of Fortune has also given "props" and images to use to do as you please, which I find pretty cool: Califon Images |

Now that's cool that Wheel gives you these images and stuff! I just downloaded them.

I would also like to enter this, but one problem. I try to download the images, but when I open the file, the images are all screwed up.

Darn. Too bad I don't do social media (with the exception of a few message boards) or I would post a pic of my homemade wheel.

Given it's Instagram, you don't need anything more than a username and a camera, really not much more than this board. Even if you don't use/close the account after the contest, it'd be for good use, and no personal information about yourself would be revealed, unless you won. You should give it a go! If you're not going to use your homemade Wheel as an entry, can I do so through BAV's Instagram?  |

^Yes, you may post it. I don't mind as long as it doesn't come down to me having to give out personal info.

Trying to come up with a creative way to depict my favorite Pat zinger, namely:
Me: Y!!!
Pat: I dunno. Yes! There is a Y.
Sadly the creative juices are not flowing.

Prizes tlc38tlc38The page says that the post can only feature the holder of the Instagram account.  TLC, what I'd probably do is make an account solely for the purpose of this contest and make your post, then after all is said and done, delete the account. I think they're looking for posts featuring the actual person since it's about "Wheel Watcher spirit", so if you're going to post, I'd recommend a video of you spinning your Wheel and maybe giving a brief intro.

^ What he said. It doesn't have to be anything elaborate, maybe just a quick "I have so much #wheelwatcher spirit, I've made my own Wheel!" or something. Your wheel is something to be proud of!

Good news: multiple entries are allowed for each account, but just one "swag bag" (LOL) for everyone.

I bet they'll use SWAG BAG as a Rhyme Time puzzle this season. LOL |

Love the term swag bag, but apparently it gets around a fair share, as it's been used in other contests, auctions, and giveaways. Having found that, I also found out what is actually in it: Wheel tote bag, Pat & Vanna autographed picture, Wheel key chain, Wheel pen, bobblehead, flashlight, and Spin THIS! T-shirt. Most of these you have a chance to win during auditions; I got the t-shirt at mine, which is really cool, actually. For those curious, this is what it looks like:  ![]() |

No $1000 wedge signed by Pat & Vanna? I've seen those auctioned off as part of Wheel gift combos on eBay and other places before. They don't look full-sized though.

Yep, I got a Swag Bag from Wheelmobile although, it was not a "Spin This" T-shirt.
Side question: Is there a gift shop at Sony Pictures Studios? Wheel merchandise? I see nothinggg online.

They used to have an online store but it seems to have went poof. I would love to be able to buy official merchandise!

I'd like to think so.  I still have other ideas for pictures (and possibly videos), though. |
