But his perseverance paid off. The Wheel of Fortune staff kept all the applications they gathered in Warwick. That led to a special threehour “invitation only” audition in Newport, RI in early January. There he played a series of simulated games and had to take a written exam. “We were told that if we were selected to be a contestant we would receive a letter in the mail within two weeks,” he says. “Two weeks came and gone with no letter. While I was disappointed, I wasn’t surprised because I knew that the number of contestants chosen each year was minimal compared to the number that actually auditioned.” Pictured: Sam Cederbaum fulfills a lifelong dream to be a contestant on Wheel of Fortune.
