Contestant Tavaris delivers a jaw-dropping response on "Wheel of Fortune," leaving viewers in disbelief and the internet abuzz with laughter.
On Thursday night's episode of the beloved game show "Wheel of Fortune," the audience witnessed an unforgettable moment that sent shockwaves through social media. Contestant Tavaris, with unwavering confidence, blurted out an X-rated answer that left host Pat Sajak speechless and viewers in a fit of laughter.
As Vanna White gracefully unveiled part of the phrase on the board, it read: _ _ _ _ /I _ /T _ E /B _ _ T! Tavaris, eager to seize the opportunity, quickly buzzed in and proclaimed with audacity, "Right in the butt."
A collective gasp and a ripple of laughter swept through the studio as Tavaris's scandalous answer reverberated around the set. Fellow contestant Tyra, seated on the other side of the stage, could barely contain her disbelief, her expression a mixture of amusement and bewilderment.
Pat Sajak, the show's enigmatic host since 1981, could not help but react to the unexpected turn of events. "What?" he uttered, his voice a blend of astonishment and amusement. The camera then panned to Tavaris, who appeared momentarily stunned, as if realizing the gravity of his verbal misstep.
Undeterred by the awkward moment, Sajak clarified, "No," signaling the incorrectness of Tavaris's response. The correct answer, which contestant Beth gracefully guessed, turned out to be the wholesome "T H I S / I S / T H E / B E S T!"
