One Wheel of Fortune contestant is being dubbed the “unluckiest” person to ever partake in the game show after a string of bad spins left viewers shocked.

Justin, a school principal who’s collected $2,000 worth of candles he’s never burned, took his shot at the long-running show during Tuesday (April 11) night’s episode. However, things didn’t quite go his way as he spun bankrupt after bankrupt.

The first time the wheel landed on the unfortunate spot, Justin was a good sport. “It’s alright,” he said. But by his third bankrupt, host Pat Sajak joked, “Justin, Justin! Go to the principal’s office!”

When it got down to what was supposed to be his “final spin” and it (yet again) landed on bankrupt, prompting Justin to hide behind the wheel, Sajak told him, “If you’ll just spin it one more time. We won’t accept a bankrupt.”

Although, one more time turned into two more times as he then landed on Lose A Turn, before finally hitting $650.

Meanwhile, fans of the show were buzzing over Justin’s ill-fated attempt on the game show. One wrote, “Justin is the unluckiest Wheel of Fortune contestant I’ve ever seen.”

Another added, “Gahdamn Justin is having the WORST luck on Wheel of Fortune,” while a third person said, “Justin is on pace for a hall of shame performance.”

“Justin had such an unlucky game like how do you spin a bankrupt then a lose a turn back to back,” someone else pointed out.

Another chimed in, “Poor Justin on @WheelofFortune just can’t catch a break! Throw some money his way just for the most bankrupt and lose a turn spins. Has to be a record!”

“Has there ever been an unluckier contestant than Justin??” someone asked, before a fan suggested, “Justin was the best contestant ever!! He needs to come back for a second chance! He was so funny.”
