Wheel Of Fortune Players Do Their Best To Make It To Final Puzzle

As longtime Wheel Of Fortune fans know, the ultimate goal when contestants have a chance to compete on the show is to outlast the other two competitors in order to make it to the final puzzle. The good news is, by the time someone makes it to the final puzzle on the game show, they likely already have an impressive money total, and sometimes, even exotic trips.

In the same way that players want to make it to the Showcase Showdown in The Price Is Right, Wheel Of Fortune players want to do their best to make it to that final puzzle. Recently, another competitor had the chance to add to her already impressive winning total, and she certainly made the most of it.

Recent Player Faced Difficult Puzzle In Game Show Scenes

A recent Wheel Of Fortune player named Traci faced down a puzzle in the “Phrase” category. It was a lengthy puzzle with several words to complete the phrase. As always, Traci was given the complimentary R, S, T, L, N, and E to work with, along with three more consonants and a vowel.

When everything was all said and done, Traci had to solve a puzzle that looked like this: “T _ E _  _O  _ _ _  _ _ C _.” With only a few seconds to solve the puzzle, Traci did not have much to work with, and the pressure was definitely on for her to try and make something out of nothing.

Even with the odds stacked against her, Traci was miraculously able to come away with the win in Wheel Of Fortune scenes, guessing correctly on this final hurdle despite not having much to work with at all. It turns out, she called out the correct answer, which was “They Go Way Back.”

This was an impossible solve, and yet, Traci needed only a few seconds to guess it correctly. A shocked Ryan Seacrest even jokingly scanned her to make sure that she did not have a hidden earpiece somewhere, that’s how good her puzzle-solving skills were on this one.

Because of her quick thinking, Traci added $50k to her winning total, for a grand total of $78,650. So, she left the Wheel Of Fortune set considerably richer than when she arrived.
