So, here’s the Wheel story
‘Wheel of Fortune’ contestants guess rarely used letter to solve a puzzle, leaving fans confused

Two contestants on “Wheel of Fortune” missed out on a big trip when they decided to guess one of the most infrequently used letters to solve a puzzle.

Not only is Q rarely used as a guess on “Wheel of Fortune” since it typically has to accompany a U in most English words, but the puzzle that the women were trying to solve didn’t really have room for a Q.

When the ladies made their guess, the puzzle read: "E _ _TIC - AND - C _ L _ R _ _ L - BIRDS."

Therefore, the only logical place for a Q would create “EQUTIC” or “C_L_RQUL,” neither of which are words in English. As a result, Robinson and Krol's opponents were given a chance to solve the puzzle and correctly guessed, "EXOTIC AND COLORFUL BIRDS." The move won them a trip and cost Robinson and Krol a shot at the bonus round.

1. We saw this too. Good grief. Oh well, when you got the lights in your face and all of the noise...

and crap going on, on national TV, you can't really blame the contestants too much. It's a little much (although it did cost them quite a bit).
