SAJAK SABOTAGING WHEEL OF FORTUNE!

Creating chaos to derail Ryan

-

BOOTED and bitter Pat Sajak is doing everything he can to sabotage Wheel of Fortune before he walks out the door, according to sources who say he’s leaving his replacemen­t Ryan Seacrest a monstrous mess to clean up.

Sources snitch the snarky 77-year-old host is carrying a grudge over being forced into retirement to make way for fan favorite Seacrest, 49, and is making everyone pay!

“Pat might be physically present on the show, but he’s already gone and doesn’t care anymore,” spills an insider. “At the same time, he’s having a bit of mean fun by confusing the game and treating contestant­s like idiots.”

Fans were outraged over a recent segment when a contestant named Megan missed out on a $40,000 bonus. She was given i ten t seconds d t to solve the Living Thing puzzle spelling P_N_ _RC_ _D, and fans are convinced she whispered, “pink orchid,” the correct answer.

But when the buzzer went off, Pat told her: “I’m sorry that didn’t work out for you.”

Huffs the insider, “Pat was standing right next to her. He must’ve heard she said, ‘ pink orchid,’ yet he didn’t do a thing about it.” Megan later defused the situation insisting she didn’t give the right answer. Still, the damage was done and Sajak has been under fire again!

“People behind the scenes aren’t happy with his endless gaffes, tasteless jokes and insults,” tattles the tipster. “On the one hand, it’ll be great to see the back of Pat. But he’s laying a trap for Ryan, telling people to brace themselves because they won’t know what to expect when Ryan takes over in the fall.

“Ryan must be gnashing his teeth, just hoping there’s still a show to host.”
