So we knew Pat Sajak was the Wheel Of Fortune host — however does that make him a fortune teller?? Or was he actually planning on Ryan Seacrest being his substitute host for some time now??
In a resurfaced video from 2012, it looks as if the longtime Wheel host was already hinting on the producer being his substitute for when he retired — earlier than he was even contemplating dropping his gig! In the video, Pat could be heard making a number of little errors within the decade-old episode, beginning with when a contestant requested for a vowel after spinning a free play:
“You spun the wheel, you have to ask for a consonant … Oh wait, you spun a free play, I’m an idiot. You see the way it works is if you land-. Nevermind. Is there an ‘E’ in the puzzle?”
LOLz!

Later in the identical episode, one other contestant spins the wheel and lands on a visit to Arizona. She then requested if there’s an “N” within the puzzle, to which Pat replies:
“I’m not sure. Let’s look. Yeah. There are three ‘N’s. Pick up that trip.”
When the digicam pans away, he could be heard joking:
“Seacrest is on speed dial.”
Whoa!
Ch-ch-check out the clip for your self (beneath):
Pat Sajak truly predicted Ryan Seacrest changing him again in 2012! After he made a mistake, he joked, “Seacrest is on speed dial.” #WheelofFortune @RyanSeacrest @PatOnWheel pic.twitter.com/ZOJgYVHArS

With the announcement from Wednesday that Ryan will truly be taking up for the 76-year-old, it makes us surprise if this has been in talks for some time! Or was this simply an instance of recreation recognizing recreation… present??
What do U suppose, Perezcious readers? Let us know (beneath).
