A contestant on the Wheel of Fortune left audiences speechless after giving an X-rated answer on the show.
Now, after a long day at work, what’s the best way to relax? Obviously with a pint of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream and some good ol’ TV.
And my go-to these days has been Wheel of Fortune because it’s simple to understand and I don’t really have to spend ages scratching my head looking for the answers – I do enough of that at work.
But one episode – which aired in May – left a lot of us scratching our heads after one contestant offered up a guess that shocked the nation.
Tavaris had us all gasping before bursting out into fits of laughter after a four-word phrase that looked like this: “_ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _/” had him buzz in and guess: “Right in the butt?”
Have a look at the moment below:
@mattwalsh_This is the worst answer in game show history.
I mean, first of all – what?
And second of all – “right” has five letters in it, not four.
The audience in attendance was seemingly shocked, as were the other contestants, with a few gasps echoing around the place before they were replaced with laughter.
“What?” one female player stated when she heard the X-rated answer.
“No,” former host Pat Sajak responded, managing to keep his composure, despite the hilarious blunder.

As the crowd still continued to laugh, contestant Blake solved the riddle with the correct (and more innocent) answer which was: “This is the best!”
A clip of the moment was reposted to X by Barstool Sports, who captioned it: “Welcome to the Wheel of Fortune Hall of Fame” – and let’s just say, the internet was having a field day with this one.
“Right… is 5 letters – man has booty on his mind,” wrote one user while another added: “This is what will bring unity to America .. lmao.”
“The actual answer makes it even funnier…” a third stated.
“Bro saw his opportunity and took it,” this X-user added.
And this user also commended the audience writing: “Hahaha that is amazing. Loved the audiences [sic] reaction.”
