Another one bites the dust. "Wheel of Fortune" fans slammed the game show after an unlucky contestant didn’t solve a bonus puzzle correctly.
During a bonus round this week, "Wheel of Fortune" player Cesar took a stab at the challenging puzzle.

"That was a…uhh capital," Cesar guessed while struggling to solve the puzzle.
After ten seconds, the timer buzzed and longtime game show host Pat Sajak replied, "Well you needed one more letter, either the ‘P’ or the ‘F,’" he suggested. "Wheel of Fortune" co-host Vanna White revealed the letters on the puzzle board read, "THAT WAS A PIVOTAL FACTOR." The audience was heard saying "aww" in the background.
