'Wheel of Fortune' player can't solve filled-in puzzle

He's probably not going to live this one down anytime soon. Wheel of Fortune contestant Julian Batts, who was participating in the game show's College Week last Friday, lost out on a chance to play for $1 million. He managed to choose every single correct letter in the puzzle, and after the letters were all revealed, he still lost because he failed to correctly pronounce all the words on the board, reports E! The correct answer was "Mythological Hero Achilles," but the Indiana University freshman incorrectly pronounced "Achilles" as "A-chill-us." Lucky for the contestant after him, who was given the chance to solve the puzzle and correctly pronounced the answer.

Saw this, he was a terrible player lol. But let's not be confused and think that if he would have solved this puzzle he would have won a million dollars. He still would have had to win the game, land on a million in the bonus spin, and solve the final puzzle.

Damn, if he just remember the song, he'd be a made man.

ACHILLES!!!! ACHILLES BACK RRRIIIIIBBBBSSS!!!! I WANT MY ACHILLES BACK RIBS!

Barbecue sauce.
 
I'd definitely quit my day job if I won a million dollars. I'd still look into ways to make a living because 1 mil wouldn't last forever, but it'd most likely be freelance work and not a 9-5.
 
I'd hire console owners to cut onions. Then bathe in their tears if I had a million $. Either that or 2 chicks at the same time...
