“Pat, i’d like to buy a…”
I recently wrapped work on a very fun shoot for the gameshow Wheel of Fortune. The show brought hosts Pat Sajak and Vanna White up to Seattle in order to film them at various attractions, which will air as part of a “Seattle Week” next season. We managed to cover virtually all of the city in a few short days, including places like Pike Place Market, Gasworks Park, Chihuly Garden & Glass, Husky Stadium, MOHAI, and some great Seattle restaurants including the new Trove on Capitol Hill and Northlake’s Westward.
It was amazing to see in person just how popular Pat & Vanna are, even after more than two decades doing the show. Fans flocked to our set at nearly every location. Westward, which serves fantastic oysters, had some fun with their marquee. Pat enjoyed the place so much he stayed for dinner afterward.
