What is the Wheelmobile?
The Wheelmobile is a 39-foot
Winnebago that tours nationwide in search of contestants for
television’s #1 game show. The Wheelmobile team is coming your
way to find contestants in Fargo!
The Wheelmobile event is brought
to you by Dakota Magic Casino. There is no charge for parking or
admission to the Wheelmobile event. Parking will be available in
the South lot located off of 32nd Avenue. Doors to the UP Center
will not open until after 10 AM each day.
We will begin handing out
applications one hour before each show begins. Shows will begin
at 12:00 PM, 1:30 PM, and 3:00 PM, with each show lasting about
an hour. There is no need to arrive hours in advance of the
event. Everyone who attends the event will be able to submit an
application. We will select participants to come to the stage
and audition via a random draw.
How does it work? There
are three Wheel of Fortune shows during each day of a Wheelmobile event. Each show lasts approximately one hour.
Everyone who comes to a Wheelmobile event will receive a color-coded application. The
color of the application tells you what time the game you are
eligible for will begin.
Fill out your application
and drop it in a nearby receptacle. Just before show time, we
will put all the applications in a big golden drum that sits on
the stage.
When the show begins, our Wheelmobile host will pick applications at random from the drum
and call participants up to the stage (in groups of five) to
play the game.
On stage, we will do a
brief interview with each contestant and play a version of the
Wheel of Fortune Speed-Up Round.
Each person who comes up
to the stage will be evaluated as a potential contestant for the
show. At the end of the puzzle all contestants on stage will be
awarded a prize. (Wheel of Fortune hats, t-shirts and duffle
bags are just some of the stuff you might win.)
Wheel of Fortune is
looking for good game players who are energetic, enthusiastic
and fun. This is your opportunity to shine. Show us what you’ve
got!
After the Wheelmobile
event in your area has been conducted, we will choose the people
we believe will be the best candidates for the show (based on
their overall performance on stage) to take part in a final
round of auditions. These final auditions will take place in
the Fargo area within a few months after our last event date.
We will get as many
people up to the stage as we can. However, we know there will be
many more folks at our Wheelmobile events than we can possibly
audition. For this reason, we will reserve some slots in the
final auditions for those individuals who attended Wheelmobile
events but did not make it up to the stage. After all
Wheelmobile events have been conducted, we will draw a number of
names at random from all the applications we receive in the
Fargo area for these slots.
If you are invited to the
final auditions, you will receive a letter or email within a few
weeks of our last Wheelmobile event.
