PAT SAJAK RETIRING AFTER NEXT SEASON

You’ve all heard the news today! This day had to come eventually! For my entire life, the only constants in my life were knowing Wheel, Jeopardy! and Price is Right would be on every day. Pat and Vanna were like the biggest stars in my world. I remember in my childhood acting out Wheel of Fortune, memorizing all of Pat’s lines. At that age, I would have no idea what the jokes were.

Sajak’s wit and easy-going demeanor has been a soothing presence for over 40 years. I will miss all the times he’d joke around or act like a big win was just another day. You can watch so many great hosts since that don’t take themselves too seriously. (Drew Carey, Todd Newton, Wayne Brady, etc.) It’s a special gift that not everyone has, and Pat does.

Someone’s going to have a big suit to fill. “Wheel” may never be the same, but I’ll still be following. It’s happened to many game shows over the last few years. Still have memories of hearing Bob Barker’s retirement and Trebek’s death. When other shows and hosts have come and gone, it’s sad. Luckily, we have the Internet to relive those memories. Just make sure to not lose sight of the here and now. You might miss something great!

Thanks for the memories, Pat!
