'Wheel of Fortune' contestants may be on a game show, but Pat Sajak is not playing around.
Fans of the show fixated on a stern look Sajak gave contestant Greg Wylie on Wednesday's episode after a playful conversation about Wylie's fencing hobby.
'It's more Renaissance outfits and we do competitive fencing tournaments, you can do multiple players on the field,' Wylie said. 'So basically I go out on the weekend and stab my friends. So it's very cathartic.'

To the average person, who has seen the XFL and other pro sports leagues go under, it looks like Sajak has money to burn. He talks about why this is a good venture capital investment, and what separates risky money from plain stupid money.

'Well just stay on guard,' Sajak joked. 'Fencing humor there.'
As Sajak was turning to a commercial break, Wylie jumped in and said 'I got the point.' The contestant's joke led Sajak to turn away from the camera and back to Wylie.

'Pat about to lose it on this guy, again,' wrote @shleppy67 who was likely referring to Sajak's encounter with another contestant the week prior.
On a Nov. 25 episode of 'Wheel of Fortune,' Sajak jokingly went off on a contestant calling him 'ungrateful' and later apologized for doing so.
The moment happened when Darin McBain guessed the word 'kitchen oven' correctly but was confused by the term.
'Kitchen oven? What was that?' McBain said. 'Who calls it a kitchen oven?'
'You won, don't argue, Darin! You got the puzzle,' Sajak said. 'Ungrateful players, I've had it!'
