linkEver wonder why Pat Sajak has unending enthusiasm toward the purchase of a vowel?
Turns out, margaritas have something to do with it.
The host of the long-running game show Wheel of Fortune says that back in the day, he and Vanna White occasionally had a drink – or six – while working on the show.
When asked by Dan Le Ba of Dan Le Ba Is Highly Questionable, which airs on ESPN 2, if he ever hosted the show while intoxicated, Sajak, 65, came clean.
"Yes," the TV veteran admitted with a laugh. "When I first started and was much younger and could tolerate those things. We had a different show then."
With a two-and-a-half hour dinner break during the game show's early format, Sajak and White would drop by Los Arcos, a Mexican joint in Burbank, for margaritas.
"Vanna and I would ... have two or three or six and then come and do the last shows and have trouble recognizing the alphabet," he says. "I had a great time. I have no idea if the shows were any good, but no one said anything, so I guess I did okay."
Though he insists he no longer imbibes while at work, Sajak has a feeling those old shows would be fun to watch. "They're really great tapes to get a hold of," he says.
We'll bring the chips and salsa when you find 'em, Pat!

Do you think he used a vowel?![]()
Leans over, looks her up and down, glances at her crotch and says "I'll have a P"
Looks at his own and tells her "the category is Thing"
did anyone ever see the episode where Pat took off his hairpiece as they were saying goodbye to the audience. I think he said something along the lines of "i have to come celan"....I tuned in just in time to see that happen and was like wtf?!?! But it was also on april fools day so I never did find out if it was a joke
damn hard to tell

Well, we pulled off a pretty good April Fool's Day prank when I "pulled off" my hair and revealed nothing but scalp. Yes, it was a joke, despite the fact that it looked so real. First, a very talented guy named Bob Kretschmer (he's worked on all kinds of movies, including Pirates of the Caribbean) made a wig to match my hair. Then a make-up artist covered my real hair with a so-called "bald cap". I asked Vanna not to come into the make-up room while all this was going on. She knew about the gag, but I didn't want her to see the results so she would act genuinely surprised by how realistic everything looked. Sure enough, when she removed the hairpiece on the air, her reaction was terrific.
That was our first April Fool's trick since Alex Trebek and I switched places a few years ago. I don't know what we might be able to do next year to top this one, but I'll start working on some ideas. By the way, after the taping, I found out that there's nothing as useless as owning a wig of your own hair. Well, maybe if I wait long enough, it'll come in handy.
classic
Who wouldn't in that situation?
I'm sure vanna exposed her Y to him a time or two.
This is news? Anyone could easly tell that.
Speaking of game shows, I always suspected Richard Dawson from Family Feud to be buzzing on the show.
No doubt. All those 70s game shows. Anything with Charles Nelson Riley or Rip Taylor on it.
ha! fooled me
I used to watch just to see what Vanna was wearing; she's always had the most beautiful wardrobe.
Ha, I just remembered I actually wore a gown from "The Vanna White Collection" to my brother's first wedding in the late 80's! I felt like a princess![]()
Is there a T and A?
