Oddity

The Resume

    Born in Clinton, New Jersey
    Resides in New York
    Answered a seven-word puzzle with only one letter and an apostrophe as clues on 'Wheel of Fortune'
    Phrase: I've Got a Good Feeling About This
    Works as a fashion editor

Why she might be annoying:

    She was 26 at the time of her appearance on the show and said that appearing on 'Wheel of Fortune' was at the top of her bucket list since she was a child.
    She claimed that the apostrophe in the first word actually helped her figure out the phrase even before she called out the first letter.
    After correctly solving the puzzle, Pat asked her how she did it and she replied that she simply 'had a good feeling about this.'
    Many people suspected the segment was a hoax.

Why she might not be annoying:

    The video of her amazing solve became viral.
    Her request to solve the puzzle after the reveal of one letter left Pat stunned.
    Her accurate solve left Pat, her fellow contestants and viewers shocked.
    Because she solved a prize question, collecting money for letters was not an issue.
    Her quick solve brought further shame to the military contestants who were unable to solve the phrase 'Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa' despite the fact that there were no hidden letters remaining.
    Her achievement brought immense press coverage by People.com, CNN and Yahoo.
