Keep Scrolling To Check Out Damon's Story
Since 1975, Wheel of Fortune has been entertaining audiences with their daily puzzles. Nowadays Ryan Seacrest has taken over as the host and we still laugh at everyone's terrible guesses. A man went viral just last week for this...unique answer.
I saw today that a Wichita Falls man will be competing in tonight's episode. So I decided to reach out to Damon on Facebook about the show.
Damon Sayles Born in Wichita Falls, Texas in 1976
Damon told me he grew up in Wichita Falls from 1976 until he was a sophomore in 1993. He moved to West Texas after that. Apparently Damon is competing on the show to honor his aunt who recently passed away in January. When he was growing up, Damon and his aunt would always watch 'Wheel of Fortune'. The two would always try to solve the puzzles together. After her passing, Damon made an appreciation tape for his aunt which included their love for 'Wheel of Fortune'. This helped Damon get on the show and his episode is airing tonight.
