Pat Sajak: Vanna White and I did 'Wheel' drunk

NEW YORK (AP) -- The "Wheel of Fortune" wasn't the only thing spinning for Pat Sajak and Vanna White back in the day.

Sajak said in an interview on ESPN2 this week that the long-time game show team would occasionally walk over to a nearby restaurant for "two or three or six" margaritas during a break in taping early "Wheel of Fortune" shows in California. Sajak has hosted the show since 1981, and White joined him a year later.

Although he joked that he had "trouble recognizing the alphabet" for shows taped after the margarita stops, no one ever said anything to them.

Now that he's older, Sajak said he couldn't do that anymore.

I knew it! I remember watching a few old episodes a year or so ago and I totally heard him slurring his speech. What a life though, you can get hammered and hang out all day basically doing fuck all. Props to Sajak!

I knew there was a reason he was so awesome. And really, I would forgive Vanna White too. She is to hot not to forgive for something like that. Besides, gotta keep the male viewers watching.

Oh my god :laugh: that's too funny right there, I'd like to find clips or something of these because I know it would have to be pretty funny if I could at least notice it. My grandma have watched it for years I wonder if she ever did notice.

that is great, I am sure he has had some dumb asses up in that show at some point so taking a shot might help get through it. Pat Sajak is the greatest game show host ever now.
