WoF Quickcap: MEMORIAL DAY 2024

We’re on the blue generic stage for this edition of 🌟Fan Favorites🌟, meaning May 17’s episode likely took place on this set and not Thanks for the Memories.

One of these Fan Favorites including two men could be SEEING THE WORLD IN STYLE…

Rufus Cumberlander: solved the Final Spin puzzle, CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH, with just the T on Feb. 17, 2015, in his home state; he appreciates the studio’s AC because the humidity in Hawaii made him sweat so much, he “made the makeup artist work overtime” from Ewa Beach, HI

Cynthia King: excitedly landed on the National Geographic Expeditions wedge and won the resulting cruise on Feb. 28 of this year; she hosted 75 friends and family at her first watch party and fulfilled her coworkers’ wishes for a return to Wheel so they could join her second from Warren, MI

Luidgi Altidor: solved several puzzles and won a trip to Maui on Jan. 8, 2020, while Vanna and Maggie hosted; he was “heartbroken” Pat was absent from his episode because he was having a hangnail removed recovering from surgery from Brooklyn, NY


FINAL SCORES
Luidgi
: $17,358 cash & Curaçao | Rufus: $3K | Cynthia: $19,390 cash & cruise

Cynthia makes a critical A purchase to leave behind $12,200 including the $10K MW.

Cynthia denies herself from the Triple Toss-Up sweep by blanking out, and to make matters worse, it was a TRIPLE STUMPER (sixth one of the season; everyone was busy congratulating Rufus on his surprisingly wrong answer of DON’T LOOK AWAY).
