Yesterday on the Wheel of Fortune

It’s Wheel of Fortune, America’s Game and we’re posting the Bonus Puzzle with the winner’s final prize amount. By way of comparison, the Jeopardy! payoff is also included with a link to the recap of that game.

These common letters are always turned over in the bonus puzzle before the player chooses letters: R, S, T, L, N, E.

Wed 3-5-25: On Wheel of Fortune: $62,950
On Jeopardy: $45,601

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
K I C K I N _ 🟪 B _ C K
_ N _ 🟪 R E L _ _ I N _

Chelsea chose the letters B, K, C and I, seeming to play a hunch on the second word. Whatever made her choose those letters paid off
_ _ N _ S _ _ E L _.
The only thing left unknown after that was Chelsea’s prize. She won one of those MINI Coopers that keep turning up. It’s worth $41,200.

PHRASE: G _ N E 🟪 H _ _ _ _ R E

Ricky chose the letters G, H, D and A. With the G and the H, he had the starting letter of each word. It looked like smooth
S _ _ L _ N _
when they were turned over. Alas, the curse of the compound word struck again when it came to finishing the phrase off. Ricky missed out on a new ride– the MINI Cooper worth a bit over $40K.
