Wheel of Fortune contestant Will Jordan got angry after giving the “stupidest” yet “most hysterical” wrong answer ever

WHEEL of Fortune contestant Will Jordan has been slammed for giving the “stupidest” yet most “hysterical” wrong answer ever on the popular game show.

Will, a police officer from Wethersfield, Connecticut, seemed to have all but solved the mystery, as only a few letters were missing from a special Veterans Day episode.

But he’s hilariously taken the wrong direction.

Will asked host Ryan Seacrest if he could buy a U and he got three.

Then he made a guess.

“I’d like to solve the mystery,” Will said.

He continued, “Treat yourself to a round of sausage.”

The audience fell silent and was visibly confused.

Ryan said, “No. I’m sorry, that’s not it.”

Confident competitor Kitina immediately intervened.

“I would like to solve it,” she said.

Then she gave the correct answer: “Give yourself a round of applause.”

Ryan Seacrest slammed his ‘annoying’ habit as Wheel of Fortune fans say he’s ‘trying too hard to seem relaxed’

“Yes, it is!” Ryan exclaimed.

“Although, Will, I kind of like yours better.

“That sounds better than just clapping now.”

Will finished the game in third place with $8,000.

He later spoke to social media correspondent Maggie Sajak, daughter of former host Pat.

“I’m telling you, when the lights are on and the stars, Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White, are there, I just go blank,” he explained.

“If your retired dad sees the show, maybe drinks a beer and laughs, it will be worth it.”

-Prices have also been increased and now include tickets to NFL games and tickets to high-profile concerts.

FANS NOISE OFF

Fans watching at home couldn’t believe their screens.

One confessed on Reddit: “We laughed, we cried, we bled a little from the eyes.”

Another added: “I’ve never seen anything like this. My jaw is still on the floor.”

“That was hysterical,” chimed in a third.

A fourth wrote: “I think that was the stupidest guess ever.”
