Of all the mistakes one can make on 'Wheel' this is probably the worst, and it could have easily been avoided. 

Over the many years that 'Wheel' has been on, there have been numerous horrible guesses at puzzles, but I believe Pat Sajak should be allowed to swat any contestant who makes the same mistake this guy does.

Having said that, I can see myself making this very mistake. I've been accused many times (and rightly so) of not listening when people are talking to me. And if I was on the show, I'd be thinking ahead, trying to solve the puzzle way before it's my turn. And certainly not paying attention to what is going on around me.

By the way, to all who will accuse me of not paying attention in the future, and there will be many, all I can say on the matter is...don't talk to me when I'm not listening
