Pat Sajak celebrates 40 years of hosting ‘Wheel of Fortune’ with fans upset by lack of tribute
Pat Sajak has hit a major milestone.
The 75-year-old game show host took to Twitter on Tuesday to celebrate 40 years of hosting “Wheel of Fortune” with a few fun tidbits about what was hot when he started in 1981.
“When I started hosting ‘Wheel’ (with Susan Stafford) on this date 40 years ago, the top 10 TV shows included ‘Dallas,’ ‘Three’s Company,’ ‘The Jeffersons’ and ‘The Dukes of Hazzard,’” he wrote in his message. “Ronald Reagan was in his 1st year as president. Number 1 song: Olivia Newton-John’s ‘Physical.'”
Fans took to the comments to congratulate Sajak.
