Ex-NFL Star Leaves 'Celebrity Wheel Of Fortune' Fans Groaning With Epic Puzzle Solve Fumble

Rashad Jennings was just one letter away from solving a puzzle involving director Quentin Tarantino—and he fumbled it badly.

Former New York Giants running back Rashad Jennings epically fumbled trying to solve a Wheel of Fortune puzzle involving a famous Hollywood director.

On Wednesday's Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, with one letter left to solve the puzzle, Jennings couldn't figure out that the phrase "Driving to Reno with _uentin Tarantino" should be completed with the letter Q.


The puzzle was, of course, referring to Academy Award-winning director and screenwriter Quentin Tarantino–who is known for films like Pulp Fiction (1994), Django Unchained (2012), and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019).

Although the accomplished filmmaker is familiar to most general contemporary-moviegoing audiences, it's not entirely shocking that there are people, let alone a pro athlete, who would not be familiar with Quentin Tarantino.

With a $4,050 winnings tally, Jennings chose to go for another spin and guessed the letter P would solve the puzzle.

The audience audibly groaned in disappointment after rooting for Jennings, who thought "Puentin" Tarantino was a real person.

Here is the clip.

Social media users face-palmed.







At least he's still a champ.

After announcing his retirement from the NFL on December 8, 2017, Jennings went on to dominate in another competitive field with Season 24 of Dancing with the Stars.

He was paired with professional dancer Emma Slater, and together they won the competition on May 23, 2017.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

These are jokes, of course, but it's an internet consensus that men spend a really long time on the porcelain throne.
