Wheel Of Fortune Wheel

Am I the only one who's noticed that the Wheel of Fortune wheel is under the full control of management, and not the contestants? When the show starts that wheel is spinning a thousand miles an hour. Under its own power. If they can make it go they can also make it slow. It probably has more gears than Big Ben. Ever notice if they accidentally get a real prick asshole on the show that that prick asshole is gone REAL fast? The assholes just have the WORST fuckin' bad luck with that wheel. It's amazing.
