Nearly instantly after Tavaris made his NSFW guess on “Wheel of Fortune,” the second was memorialized forever on the web. The clip started to make rounds of TikTok, X, previously referred to as Twitter, and each different social media web site you may think about. The response was gleeful, with @BuzzerBlog tweeting, “Congratulations to Tavaris for having the ability to enthusiastically shout ‘RIGHT IN THE BUTT’ simply days earlier than Pat’s retirement. This can be a incorrect guess for the document books. #WheelOfFortune.” (Sajak introduced months in the past that he can be leaving the present in June 2024, with Ryan Seacrest stepping in as his alternative.)
Others expressed their disbelief that the contestant would even contemplate one thing like that as the right reply, with X consumer @excuseyou77 writing exasperatedly, “THIS IS WHEEL OF FORTUNE, TAVARIS!!” However most appeared to be rooting for the unlikely hero of the Wheel, together with @curlprofessor, who tweeted, “One of many best guesses of all time. I instantly texted this to 2 totally different nations and one other state. I hope #Tavaris will get no matter he hopes for in life. Bless him, the excitable champion rib eater. That is the perfect! #wheeloffortune.”
And with that one extraordinarily assured, extraordinarily incorrect reply, Tavaris took his place in “Wheel of Fortune” historical past.
