In a bizarre turn of events, Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak has been caught on camera tackling contestant Frank to the ground, just moments after he solved the final puzzle and won a brand new car.
As Frank excitedly jumped up and down and hugged his wife, Sajak’s mood turned sour. Suddenly, without warning, Sajak charged at Frank and tackled him to the ground with all his might. The two grappled on the floor as the studio audience gasped in shock.
Co-host Vanna White, who was standing nearby, quickly walked over and pulled Sajak off of Frank. “What is wrong with you, Pat?!” she exclaimed. “He won fair and square!”
But Sajak was not to be deterred. He continued to rant and rave about how Frank won too much. “This is a conspiracy, I tell you!” he shouted. Meanwhile, Frank remained on the ground, dazed and confused. He later recounted the incident to reporters, saying that he never could have imagined something like this happening on Wheel of Fortune.
Despite the shock and outrage among fans of the show, Sajak has yet to comment on the incident. Some have speculated that he may be going through an endlife crisis or suffering from a severe case of envy.
The incident has also raised questions about the safety of contestants on the show. Wheel of Fortune producers have since released a statement assuring viewers that they take the safety and well-being of their contestants very seriously, and that they are investigating the incident to ensure that it never happens again. This is certainly one episode of Wheel of Fortune that won’t soon be forgotten. Whether it was a momentary lapse in judgement or something more sinister, it’s clear that Pat Sajak has a lot of explaining to do.
