Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak snaps at contestant as she struggles to think of letter & then mocks her

WHEEL of Fortune host Pat Sajak has mocked a player's method of asking for the letters on the board.

Sajak, 75, lost his patience during the latest episode as a contestant struggled to think of a letter.

After correctly answering both the $1000 and $2000 "Toss-Up," the contestant, Terresa, was first up for the chance to solve the game show's Crossword Puzzle.

Pat provided the clue of "blank-taco" and then allowed the contestant to take a spin.

She proceeded to correctly complete much of the puzzle, filling the board with guessed consonants and purchased vowels.

The TV personality sounded noticeably annoyed as Teressa tended to pause before announcing her letter.

Later in the round, after landing on a wedge that offered a trip to San Francisco, Terresa appeared to freeze before making her selection.

Pat urged her to hurry, warning "need a letter."

The contestant correctly yelled, "T," as Pat scolded her to "say it quickly," which led Teressa to apologize.

A few moments later, instead of calling out the letter like normal, Terresa stated: "I would like to have an N."

Prompting Pat to mock her request and repeat: "She would like to have an N."

Before the contestant's last spin, before finally guessing wrong, Pat chided: "So now what letter would you like... and don't get buzzed out."

THROWING SHADE

In the final segment of the episode, Pat threw shade at the same contestant after she failed to come close to solving the final puzzle.

Terresa collected $38,400 during the main game, before participating in the Wheel of Fortune's bonus round.

After selecting "Phrase," over the choices of "Thing" or "Event," Terresa was presented with an expression to solve.

The board showed a phrase consisting of three words, four letters in the first, three in the second, and five in the last.

The contestant was given the letters, "T," "E," and "N," before she incorrectly guessed the letters "G," "H," "P," and "O."

With no more assistance to be garnered, she was given 10 seconds to guess the right answer.

As Pat stated: "It would be a pretty miraculous solve," if she managed to guess the expression correctly.

After grasping at straws and whiffing on several attempts the buzzer sounded and Pat roasted: "You could have stood here until the next ice age and tried, you weren't going to get it."

The board then displayed the phrase, spelling out "cute and fuzzy."

He then softened the blow by cracking, "I'm a little emotional because that was my nickname in high school."

CONTROVERSIAL PHOTO

It seems Pat is done playing nice after a photo of the Wheel of Fortune host posing with a controversial figure recently went viral.

A snap showing Pat with Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, 48, caught fire online in the days before the episode.

Marjorie is known for her far-right views and promoting conspiracy theories, and many fans were done after seeing Pat posing with such a divisive figure.

Although the image was taken earlier this month, it gathered fresh attention as it was re-shared by a Twitter account and made national news.

One Twitter user commented: “Oh man… well no more WOF!”

Another person agreed, writing “I will never watch that show again.”

A third fan chimed in: “I watch it every night with my husband and daughter- after seeing this, never again!”

While a fourth commenter added: “Well I just lost all respect for him now. He went down the rabbit hole."
