Pat Sajak is no stranger to a good pun. But he actually may have been out-punned by a contestant on 'Wheel on Fortune,' so much so that it created a very awkward moment that fans of the ABC show are loving.

The cringeworthy exchange happened on Wednesday's episode of the long-running game show when Sajak, 74, was interviewing Greg Wylie, a freelance project manager from California. Wylie's unique hobby as a competitive historical fencing enthusiast quickly became the topic of conversation between the two men.

“It’s more Renaissance outfits and we do competitive fencing tournaments. You can do multiple players on the field,” Wylie explained. “So basically, I go out on the weekend and stab my friends. So, it’s very cathartic.”

  • But they ventured out into a different type of pressure when they appeared on the popular TV game show “Wheel of Fortune” with icons Pat Sajak and Vanna White. The episode aired on Monday.
  • If you tune in to Wheel of Fortune and see Vanna White chatting with the contestants and hosting the show — don't be alarmed. The 62-year-old has been turning letters on the popular game show.
  • Wheel of Fortune television game show After Wheel of Fortune hostess Susan Stafford left in October 1982, White was selected as one of three substitute hostesses (along with Vicki McCarty and Summer Bartholomew) to co-host the show. On December 13, 1982, White became the regular hostess. White is signed as a hostess of Wheel of Fortune until 2022.

On June 20, 1980, before joining Wheel of Fortune, White was a contestant on The Price is Right, but she never got off of contestants row. Producers of long-running game show Wheel Of Fortune are in crisis mode after being forced to fire presenter Vanna White after over thirty years of service. The shocking firing comes after footage.

Sajak then asked about Wylie’s family, which includes his wife, who he has been married to for 14 years, and his 12-year-old daughter, who is 'basically a teenager.'

“Well, just stay on guard,” Sajak joked after, adding, “Fencing humor there.”

After finishing the contestant's introduction, the host turned to the camera to cut to a commercial break, but not before Wylie was able to sneak in a fencing pun of his own.

“I got the point,” Wylie quipped.

This inspired a stone cold stare from Sajak that definitely made it look like he was not amused with the joke. (Maybe he didn't get it?)
