Wheel of Fortune - Live!

Wheel of Fortune - Live! was a tour sponsored by GSN which typically went to fairs and arenas. The tour ran from June or July 1996 until about 1999.

Hosts
Bob Eubanks was host when the tour began, with Michael Burger taking over later on.

Hostesses were typically local celebrities; for example, during a stop at Foxwoods from September 24-26, 1996, Maria Orsina (runner-up in Miss Connecticut 1996) filled these duties on the 24th while Stacy Perrone (winner of the aforementioned contest) played the role on the 25th and 26th.

Later in Eubanks' run, Deb Carson (one of the regular show's contestant coordinators) became hostess.

Gameplay
All audience members were eligible to play, with contestants will be chosen randomly but preference given to those showing enthusiasm.

Each show played about five or six games of Wheel interspersed with minigames based on The Newlywed Game and Card Sharks (both previously hosted by Eubanks in their TV runs).

Prizes
Players who won a game were awarded such prizes as TVs, VCRs, stereos, or a trip for two anywhere on Amtrak. The winners of each game competed in a final round for the grand prize – a trip for two to Los Angeles, complete with a private tour of Sony Studios and an appearance on GSN.

Consolation prizes included various home, travel, and electronic versions of Wheel plus smaller electronics and other merchandise. All audience members also received a game card good for small prizes given away during the show.
