Gary Williams from Nashville and Keri Harris from Durham are gearing up to spin the wheel after winning the first Wheel of Fortune second-chance drawing.
The prize includes a five-day, four-night trip for the winner and a guest to Hollywood. They’ll take part in a lottery players only version of Wheel of Fortune and have a chance to win $1 million. They also get $1,000 spending money.
Williams, a maintenance manager, couldn’t believe it when he got the news.
“There was disbelief, excitement, a lot of mixed emotions,” Williams said. “I told my wife and she was whooping and hollering and wanting to call everyone and tell them.”
Harris is a nursing assistant and said this trip will be extra special.
“My husband and I just got married in January,” Harris said. “This is the honeymoon we didn’t get to take.”
Both winners are looking forward to the chance to put their puzzle-solving skills to the test.
“It’s our favorite game,” Williams said.
“I grew up watching it and I always wanted to be on the show,” Harris said.
There are still two more chances to win. The deadline to enter the second drawing is Sunday. The drawing will take place on August 10th. Just enter a $5 Wheel of Fortune into the second-chance drawing from your Lucke-Zone account.
The second-chance drawings are part of the Wheel of Fortune instant game that started in June. The game still has one top prize of $150,000 and drawings for two more trips.
