A Wheel of Fortune contestant made a huge error on the popular game show and fans are left scratching their heads.
The show's contestant named Shafi—who many people thought sounded like actor Joe Pesci—was guessing song lyrics.
As more letters were guessed and more money was wracked up, there was a chance for Shafi to guess the lyrics.
When viewing from home, it might have been clear with most of the words fully formed:
“TH_S _AND _AS MADE FOR YOU AND ME”
Somehow, Shafi guessed something completely different than the famous lyrics to This Land is Your Land by Woody Guthrie:
“This band has made for you and me.”

There was no getting out of this one.
Everyone saw the epic mistake.
Bless his heart. If he'd at least said WAS to make it grammatically correct.— Jen Hunter (@Jen Hunter) 1641595571

Reminded me of one of my past fave flubs:\n\nQueen and David _o_ie \nSing _nder Press_re\n\nThe chick solved with "Queen and David Louie Sing Under Pressure."pic.twitter.com/P9O2qdAsZM— Katie Casper, the (Mostly) Friendly Gamer (@Katie Casper, the (Mostly) Friendly Gamer) 1641518079
This band has made for you and me, Shafi. #shafikahn #wheeloffortune— Allison Hapeman (@Allison Hapeman) 1641516780
I guess the joke's on us because "this band has made for you and me" Shafi is going to the final round. #wheeloffortune— Amanda \ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddea\u2744\ufe0f\u26c4 (@Amanda \ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddea\u2744\ufe0f\u26c4) 1641516865
He redeemed himself with some pretty solid puzzle solving there at the end.— Eugene Byon (@Eugene Byon) 1641517345
I think people don't realize how no one outside of people who grew up in America's public school system knows of their patriotic songs. This song is irrelevant everywhere else in the world.— Feroze Khan (@Feroze Khan) 1641692397
If you grew up in the United States, you were probably taught this song in elementary school.
But if you didn't go to public schools in the USA, then it makes sense those lyrics wouldn't' be buried deep in your childhood memories.
Shafi is our first Bonus Round winner of 2022! pic.twitter.com/xstBcwQI4f— Wheel of Fortune (@Wheel of Fortune) 1641528001
@WheelofFortune well Shafi redeemed himself after that 1st puzzle lol #WheelOfFortune— Sue Cook (@Sue Cook) 1641515339
My advice to the other two contestants, let Shafi win or you might end up sleeping with the fishes. #WheelOfFortune— Wheel Watcher (@Wheel Watcher) 1641516049
Now there\u2019s some #WheelOfFortune redemption for Shafi— Ian Lovdahl (@Ian Lovdahl) 1641514867
Even with that epic fail, Shafi made it to the bonus round and walked away with $71,150 in winnings.
And he'll likely never forget those lyrics again.
