In a recent interview with ESPN2, Pat Sajak admits that he used to host Wheel of Fortune tanked.
According to the story, back in the 1980s there would be a couple hours of downtime between tapings of the show in order for the prizes to be rearranged. So, Pat and Vanna hoofed it over to a nearby Mexican restaurant and had a liquid lunch. "Two or three or six" margaritas each, according to Pat. After tying one on, Pat and Vanna would stagger back to the set and host another episode.
Forget Pat. I'm more amazed a Vanna hopped up on the hooch didn't crack an ankle in her stilettos changing letters around. Her liver must be lined with steel.
