Fans of "Wheel of Fortune" think that the show is rigged: "There is a conspiracy"
The suspicions arose after the candidates landed on the same price five times in a row.
Wheel of Fortune Fans wonder if something fish happens at the game show, after five different competitors landed on the same exact BMW because of five consecutive nights. According to a mega-public, the chances that this happens are "Astronomical" impossible . So, is it a pure coincidence, or is the long-standing television program? Several viewers seem to believe the latter.
In relation: Why the original Wheel of Fortune The host was dismissed after a single season .
Things have reached a boiling point during the episode on Friday evening when Lavonda Sharp From University Park, Illinois, advanced to the bonus tour, where a brand new BMW worth $ 44,000 was at stake. All she had to do was successfully resolving the puzzle " Make has located Choice ".
As initially reported by The US sun , Sharp was not the first - or the second or third - Wheel of Fortune guest who contributed for the Brilliant BMW this week. During the four nights leading to the episode of Sharp, each competitor turned the wheel and landed at random on the BMW price. Outside the 24 corners of the board of directors, this specific corner has been selected five times in a row.
Because candidates could not understand the puzzle, the car remained one of the potential bonus prices throughout the week. In other words, until Sharp can assemble the puzzle during the episode of January 12, then hunt the lot of its brand new car.
"It's Friday; for four nights, we tried to give this car, and we did it", host Pat Sajak joking, by The US sun .
Shortly after the broadcast of the Friday episode, X was lit by fans, with greatly alleging that Wheel of Fortune is playing with viewers and perhaps even Greet the price wedges .
"I firmly believe that each price on the steering wheel in the bonus tour is a BMW. #Wheelofforttune," wrote a person.
A mechanical engineer even broke mathematics to explain why the chances of landing on the same exact corner that several times are "too little likely to be a coincidence".
"There is a conspiracy in progress Wheel of Fortune ," he started.
His thread continued: "5 nights in a row on which the price landed for the final puzzle was a car, in particular a BMW. The final wheel has 24 prices. If we assume that a card contains the car, the Chances of hitting this place 5 5 consecutive times are 1 / 7.96 million. These chances are astronomical. "
The user went so far as to allege that Wheel of Fortune Could have been under pressure to give the car "on a certain date".
"So suppose they put more BMW cards on the wheel. Let's say they make half of the BMW saying cards. 50% of the wheel, the ratings are still only 1/32 to reach 5 in a row. You must have 21 cards out of 24 Be the car before you even make 50/50 odds. Something is in place! "
In relation: Pat Sajak Slams Wheel of Fortune Fans who think the show is "fixed".

"A quick reminder of conspiracy theorists: thanks to the scandals of the 1950s quiz program, the repair of a television program is a federal crime," said Sajak, according to Good Housekeeping . "I really like our players, and I would like them to win, but I attract the line to serve the prison."
