‘Wheel of Fortune’: Texas College Student Gets Second Chance After Losing Car

Texas A&M student Raul Lopez, 19, won $18,109 on Wheel of Fortune but missed out on a Ford after failing to solve a final puzzle.
Wheel of Fortune recently launched a new format where nightly winners return to compete again, allowing successful contestants to accumulate winnings across multiple episodes.
Competing against Kris England from Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, and Camille Richardson-Mabry from Chicago, Illinois, Lopez guessed "Placing a Bet," "Placing A Bag," and "Placing a Bug" during the final round.
Despite losing the car, Lopez receives a second chance to play after he shouted, "Don t show it to me, bro!" upon realizing his error.
Lopez, who skipped classes to compete, joined the show with a "say yes to everything" philosophy that earned him significant cash despite the initial car setback.
