Vanna White has arguably one of the best jobs on TV. She has no lines to memorize or questions to read. She gets to wear stunning dresses, and she hasn’t had to turn the letter tiles around manually since 1997, when the board went digital, per Outsider.
After all those years on “Wheel of Fortune,” White has the routine down to a science. Still, that’s not to say gaffes don’t happen on occasion. White once told Yahoo! Entertainment that one of her most unforgettable moments occurred on an episode taped to air during the Christmas season. The set was decorated with prop boxes wrapped like holiday gifts, and when White walked past the pile, one of the presents got snagged on her long skirt and got taken along for the ride. “I’m pulling it back and forth as I’m walking, turning letters on the puzzle board,” White recalled. “It’s the craziest thing. I didn’t even know it was attached, which was even funnier. I’ll never forget it.”
Fortunately for “Wheel” fans, White has no immediate plans to retire from the game, so she’ll have plenty of opportunities to make more hilarious memories.
