WoF 10/7/10: $100,000 On A Whim

[sugarholic100]

wow i think it's the first time i ever got the final one right before the timer even started O-o

[001GenLee]

Does she get ALL of what she won? ....or does Uncle Sam get some of it? >:( I think government should not stick their noses in people's winnings and let 'em have ALL of what they won, but noo, that ain't how it is. I heard Canada lets someone keep ALL of their winnings if it's lottery or game show...lucky!

[iTrollhard31]

she gon be able to pay the rent for another 30 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrDouchebagtv]

congrats from maxwell house big momma!!!!

[missliz1202]

audience no help from you 

[samsticka]

Was this the last $100,000 winner before Charlie passed?

[WayoshiM]

@samsticka Technically no, but on-air, yes

[gshowguy]

@WayoshiM I think, IIRC, the last big win before Charlie's death came from Hillary's episode, (where Rich Fields did the dubbing) who didn't seem anywhere near as hysterical as Uwimama (if I spelled her name right) was.

[peakster753]

She solved this with approximately 5.94 seconds (according to my phone stopwatch so it took her just over half the allotted time which is unusual in $100K wins which made this one exciting

[delldell50]

I would of passes out if I were her.

[Disneydanny]

if this happend at the beginning or middle of a taping day i wonder how long the delay was before they started taping the next episode (i'm sure they do a thourough cleaning

[gshowguy]

Also the grand prize reveals are a little too obvious.

[Hondo20132]

Urgh I was gonna record this episode before it aired... I so totally regret not doing so!

[geniusjonw]

I don't really think this was a tough puzzle... the first word had to be either "in" or "on", and the I wasn't in it, the second word was obviously "a", so she only had to figure out the last word... easy puzzle!

[David9788]

first $100,000 win of season 28

[Boom12]

Amazing win. that was a tough tough puzzle overall and how she pulled it off?! Its just...wow. :D

[khidak1]

Moral of the day: When in doubt, whisper it out. Who knows? You just might win $100,000, just like she did.

[antwan4000]

@khidak1 or maybe $1,000,000 if you bring the Million Dollar Wedge with you to the Bonus round

[BlackFeather33AW]

wow this was a hard puzzle but this woman just figured it out very very quickly and wow she deserved that 100000 cash money god she is so good this had jsut happendf for the first time in 2010 fall

[BrakusJS]

Honest to God, I did not know this puzzle off of RSTNLE, but I worked it out after the 3+1+1. Good thing it worked out for her, too!

The Wild Card letter didn't help, but that puzzle was hard for a typical Wheel watcher. She EARNED that win.

[Fynlar]

Knew this one with the RSTLNE. Being 99% sure that the first two words were "ON A", and knowing that the last letter could not be an E, made it a lot easier to figure out the third word.

Good solve and $100k win

[ManOnCrackAkaYourMom]

holy crap..

[mcpy1212]

WOW That's hard to guess since only 7 alphabets on this puzzle.

[viddykiddy18]

Like Pat always says, "Talk it Out", you'll never know if & when what you say is right.

[mylesspike119]

Yes!! First $100K win for 28th season...Way to go Uwimana!!

[GameShowNetwork]

If there is a million dollar wedge winner, the confetti will be doubled, balloons, and fireworks falling. And Charlie O's trade mark "Million" will drawn out for 10 seconds.

[gshowguy]

@GameShowNetwork I disagree on the fireworks. That might be too dangerous. Also, I'm no elitist. Also, I don't care how long Charlie O draws out the word "million", just being enthusiastic about the prize is good enough. It's just an opinion.

[bhilcu1]

@GameShowNetwork

RIP Charlie O' Donnell!

[delldell50]

Best episode of the season yet!

[djcchs2004]

First $100K win of the season!! Way to go. She didn't need that Wild Card for help.

[DownsA530]

I applaud her for not standing there like a statue like many Wheel contestants and give us the "10 seconds of blank stare" look. Congrats on the win!

[horrorbro]

oh!!!!! Yes!!!!! at 1:57

[excelsior27]

@horrorbro I love ladies like these screaming for joy!! :-)

[peakster753]

this contestant had to work through this one a little more than is the case with a big one like this which added to the excitement

[BlackFeather33AW]

@peakster753

yeah i agree Imean i was just amazed that she had soleved that puzzle quickly without spacing out for too long I must commend her on the win seriously  we had 100000 wins before in turks and caicos

[poopybooyah]

congratulations!

[RCPlanes59]

That puzzle was so easy.

[barber215]

how the.......how did she do that?????????

[thewhammy83]

I come in ten minutes ago, seen this segment a few minutes ago, solved the puzzle, and was amazed, all within ten minutes.
