PHOTOS: 'Wheel of Fortune' watch party
Devin Hall said he had a goal to make an impression with his Thursday night appearance on “Wheel of Fortune.” However, a watch party hosted at Factory Street Brewing Company left a larger impression on him. Describing it as something closer to a Hallmark movie, Hall got emotional explaining how he felt to see a diverse crowd from different parts of his life assembled to view his 30 minutes of television fame. “It was a big outpouring,” Hall said in an interview with The Gazette. “It was something I would never forget … it was really special.”
