Game show contestant ridiculed for wrong answer on Disney clue


Nikol, a recent contestant on “Wheel of Fortune,” made such an “embarrassing” mistake on the game show that she surprised herself.

On Tuesday night’s episode, Nikol was competing in the Song Lyrics category and the phrase was 12 words. She and her fellow contestants had gotten the puzzle nearly solved, with only one letter missing.

“See the line where the s-y meets the sea, it calls me” were the lyrics that Nikol was working with.

“Wheel of Fortune” host Ryan Seacrest reminded Nikol that the phrase did not contain any more vowels. 

She quickly filled in the missing letter with an “O,” creating the word, “Soy.” 

“No, that’s not it,” Seacrest said, while someone in the audience could be heard exclaiming “Oh!”
