'Wheel of Fortune' Viewers Bewildered Again as Contestants Fail Another Seemingly Simple Puzzle

Yet another Wheel of Fortune mishap has left viewers scratching their heads in bewilderment. Just days after the "feather in your cap" flub went viral, contestants on Wednesday night's episode again sent social media ablaze with comments when they struggled to correctly guess what many viewers thought to be an easy puzzle.

During the moment in question, the contestants were given the clue, "what are you doing?" The letter board had "r_nting" for the first six-letter word, "a" as the second word, "peda_" as four letters of the five-letter third word, and "boat" correctly guessed as the final word. Just the "t," "e," and "l" were missing. After the first contestant guessed "renting a paddleboat," the answer was too long and incorrect. With the "t" and "e" added to the board, the screen read, "renting a peda_ boat." However, the contestants still struggled, guessing "pedam" or "pedaw" before, after five guesses, finally landing on the correct answer, "renting a pedal boat."

The struggle to get the right answer proved all too hilarious, and in some cases frustrating, for viewers tuning in from home. Just as it had with the "feather in your cap" mishap, the Wednesday night confusion sparked plenty of social media responses. Keep scrolling to see some of the reactions to the flub.
