‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Fans Shocked At Player’s Epic Disney Fail
This week on Wheel of Fortune, there was a very embarrassing moment when a woman got a chance to answer a puzzle with only one letter remaining. It was a famous line from a Disney song. However, while it was a well-known and easy answer, the woman couldn’t figure it out. Sadly, she realized her mistake once she said the wrong answer and cringed.
Here is what happened on the popular game show and why the woman felt so bad after the mistake.
Wheel Of Fortune Contestant Misses Easy Disney Answer
A woman named Nikol was on Wheel of Fortune this week, and she had an easy puzzle win sitting in front of her. There was only one letter remaining to the answer, which were popular Disney lyrics. However, yubi Nikol stared at the board and then gave a bizarre answer to the puzzle. It was only after she said it that she realized what the answer was.

The board read: “See The Line Where The S-y Meets The Sea It Calls Me.” Of course, this is from the Alessia Cara song “How Far I” from the movie Moana. And, as most people know the missing letter was a “K” with the term being “where the sky meets the sea.”
However, Nikol had no idea what it was at first. It seemed she was going through the vowels in her head since there was no vowel in that word (other than the rare Y). She then said something that had many fans at home shaking their heads. Nikol guessed, “See the line where the soy meets the sea it calls me.”
Ryan Seacrest told her that was incorrect. Almost instantly, Nikol’s eyes got wide, and she realized the answer, to which Ryan cringed along with her.
Wheel Of Fortune Social Media Feels Bad For Nikol
The Wheel of Fortune social media site wrote, “That scream you hear is Nikol’s soul leaving her body.” It was clearly a moment where the pressure got to the player.
Here is a sample of what the fans had to say when the Wheel of Fortune contestant struggled to come up with the easy answer on the show:
One fan can’t help but replace the words when singing the song now, writing, “I can’t stop singing the line now but replacing SKY with SOY please send help!”
Another fan understood how someone could freeze up when on national television, writing: “She was adorable, but I think nerves got to her for this puzzle; and even during the round where they are running out of time, she kept on wanting to call another letter or a vowel.”
Another fan said that they would probably have done the same thing, saying, “Well it was cute. I’d probably forget my own name on WOF.”
