WHEEL.........OF.........

#1 Post by ten96lt » Sat Feb 01, 2014 1:17 pm

Forgot to post here but on Wednesday night I received a call from a 310 area code. As soon as my phone said Culver City, CA I hit answer and it turned out to be Gary inviting me to be on College Week! I tape February 14th and it will air the week of April 7th. I'm now in the process of looking for a school sweatshirt.

Congrats and good luck! I have not watched WoF in many years, and I'm pretty much done with game shows in general, but I will try to watch that week.

Just don't be one of those people who buy a vowel when the puzzle answer is obvious.

I'll buy a Q........ :D

I'll try my best not to be one of those people on the show, but no guarantees Elwood. lol

I started asking around where I could find a sweatshirt with the school's name on it. An administrator got back to me and assured I would have a sweatshirt before leaving. Gee I wonder why? :lol: lol

Thanks!
As I was typing on my phone to reply to this, they called me to confirm my address for the Fedex package. Also got my sweatshirt today. Wanted to go through the school instead of just buying one at the bookstore outright since I'm a bigger guy and wanted to make sure they had my size or if not, they could get one ordered.
