Commercial pilot Conner Kemmsies walked onto a Valentine’s Day episode of Wheel of Fortune and managed to reach the Bonus Round with $19,080 in cash and prizes already secured. One final puzzle stood between him and an additional $40,000. When the letters appeared, the board showed only a partial phrase: “I DID MY…” With the clock ticking, Kemmsies had to figure out the missing word quickly, but the short clue opened the door to several possible answers.

He considered different completions, but none matched the solution before time expired. Then the host revealed the answer: “I DID MY HOMEWORK.” On the surface, it seemed simple, but viewers immediately began arguing about whether the puzzle had really been fair. The issue was not the phrase itself. It was the category. Because the clue was listed simply as “Phrase,” many people felt Kemmsies had been given far too little information. And once viewers started listing all the other ways “I did my…” could end, the debate exploded.
