A Wheel of Fortune contestant had a very different idea about the plot of Tennessee Williams play A Streetcar Named Desire and he paid for it.
During Tuesdays episode of the syndicated game show, Kevin was only one letter away from getting the correct answer. With A STREETCAR NA_ED DESIRE on the board, he made a crushing and dirty mistake, guessing K, which would have made for quite the adaptation.
The next contestant, Lisa quickly swooped in for the victory, even though host Pat Sajak seemed partial to Kevins response. And although you got the right answer, Id rather see Kevins play, he joked.

Horse racing?
My wife and I saw that last night and had a good laugh. His next screwup was almost as good.
Screwing up two puzzles needing to guess only a single letter must be some kind of record.
No no N Z loggers
I say, old chap, bit of a sticky picket, eh what?
That guy was one of the dumbest contestants in a while.
Category is: Unpleasant spouses.
Yeah I saw it too. If he got those he would’ve kicked butt on the show so it cost him thousands plus a trip or two.
Imagine if he spoke guessed the answer.. the show is G Rated.
Do not Image or video Bing search that with safe search off!
Annoying people!
"....aah V....aah....Q....aah number 8?"
That one’s up there with “booZing my shore excursions.”
There’s a funny meme out there showing Trump failing to solve the Wheel of Fortune phrase. Really funny.
Sticky wicket.
A sticky wicket, is a metaphor used to describe a difficult circumstance. It originated as a term for difficult circumstances in the sport of cricket, caused by a damp and soft pitch.
If you listen closely, you can hear good ol’ Kevin answer the puzzle in ‘that, like, uh, it’s like’ feminized millennial hormone lacking voice.
Such an example of a ‘Richard’!
I would NOT want to be Kevin at his place of employment today.
But, I wonder, if the contestant had been female, even a black female, and had given the same answers to the same puzzles, would she have been lampooned in the same way on social media? or defended?
One had to be willing to suffer fools to watch that episode.
It was painful.
I would not want to be Kevin period. He will never live this down.
My wife and I saw it. My wife’s first reaction was “His wife is gonna be pissed!”
