Wheel of Fortune

Discovered on a VHS tape found recently at a thrift store in New Orleans, LA. The copyright date was 1996, but doing a little research (https://andynwof.wordpress.com/2022/0...) it appears this is an episode from New York Week II, March 13th, 1996. I've included the commercials, many are local to New Orleans.

My wife and I are big fans of WoF and it was really fun to discover this episode. It's great to see how things have changed over the years, from set decorations and Vanna's hairstyle, to the puzzle themes and prizes. If you are a fan of game shows... which given the traffic to the Joker's Wild episode, I'm guessing some of you might be... I hope you enjoy, and thanks for watching!
