‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Player Gets Incredibly Lucky, Then Wins Car At The Buzzer

“Are you serious?” the contestant said.
“Wheel of Fortune” contestant Max McGee pulled off a buzzer-beater worthy of basketball’s March Madness to win a Ford Mustang convertible ― after he got a very lucky break to collect big winnings on the previous puzzle. (Watch the videos below.)
On Thursday’s episode of the popular game show, Patricia, right, appeared to solve this puzzle in the final round despite 13 letters missing:
“A Meeting Of The Mind,” she blurted out. Only she forgot to add an “s” at the end and got buzzed. After another contestant, Billie, failed to guess the obvious answer, Max chose the letter “M” to fill in what was already apparent. He easily gave the solution: “A Meeting Of The Minds.” Of course he carefully said the “s” part.
Check out the unfortunate turn for Patricia and lucky break for Max at 14:35:
“That would’ve been a great solve,” Sajak told Patricia, reminding her of the “s” omission. Turning to Max, he said, “You picked it up, and you end up as the big winner.”
