WoF 5/28/09: A "First-Ever" Ugly

This is not what I was hoping to find on the penultimate show of the season (unless that week in July counts as S26, I am kind of thinking of it as in-between).

SPOILERS BELOW THIS LINE
-------------------------------
One of the members at the Sony boards recalls a time when this happened, although it wasn't when he lost two turns, it's when you could have two free spins:

Final count:
Duds: 2, both critical. Christian's R which he forgot (see missolves for more on that) and that ghastly W. Anyone up for HIWING?
Lose a Turns: 2
Bankrupts: 3, combined $10,850 + WC lost
Missolves: 2, both by Christian; first guess already had L of PLANTS called, also LIVING with them just isn't a FUN & GAMES thing, or something most people do; second was completely stupid since a) he called the R at the start, b) the D was right there in AND like the L, c) riding on what? Again, some sense please.

If anyone, Andrea was the most innocent in this round and I would have been fine with her rebounding from her unfortunate BANKRUPT. Mary condemned herself with that W. :/

As Pat said for the first time since November 5th, good night everybody.

Has anyone ever tried to buy a Y as a vowel? Because it can be one sometimes.

[WayoshiM]

The rulebook explicitly defines Y as a consonant only in the game. Pat has rejected Y as a vowel before

I thought it was "hiding" instead of hiking. I feel so stupid.

[WayoshiM]

Yeah, HIKING was a bit of an odd word. Keep in mind the D of AND was there. Used letters is part of why this was so ugly

[Wolfman12395]

What in the HELL is that lady thinking by calling a "W"?!?!?!

HIWING?

[speier]

W stands for IDIOT

[MrStereotypist]

I actually got the last puzzle for once.

[theworstisyet2come]

you can alsways tell who pat is going for; of course he would have rather seen the girl in the middle win all the money.

[disneydanny2]

$45,00o loss = "Right In my heart" i wonder if he would have happened had he lost $100,000

[moonoink]

That lady called a W? *Charles Barkley-Like Voice* ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

[Angie2343]

RIP Charlie.

[chickenen0]

lol there's 1 more letter and vanna went away

[supowit]

@StarFighters76

THat lady is officially too stupid to get a million dollars.

[setheriah]

Dont forget the Berries were lost too

[laynecaffy]

They try to get stupid people to play their game because if they got smart people they would lose all their money :I

[StarFighters76]

4:39 - Like they really needed the buzzer to tell her it's not in the puzzle, should have just moved on without saying a word. Seriously a "W" for the word HI_ING?
