Pat Sajak had a playful meltdown on a recent episode of Wheel of Fortune.
The hilarious moment came during the November 25th episode of the long-running game show when contestant Darin McBain challenged the acclaimed host on one of the puzzle answers. Darin, whose mother was a three-day champion on the show back in 1982, was tasked with solving a puzzle for things beginning with the word 'kitchen.' Though he correctly guessed 'cabinet,' 'towels,' 'oven,' and 'sink,' Darin took issue with 'kitchen oven' being up on the board.

In response, Pat light-heartedly yelled back, 'Don't! You won! Don't argue, Darin! ... You got the puzzle. Ungrateful players! I've had it!”

He wasn’t ‘mean’ or condescending. I watch this every weeknight ...' one fan tweeted. Another remarked, 'Pat likes to joke around. I saw no harm.'

'I'm sorry I yelled at you,' Pat told Darin. 'It’s just, I don't remember your mother giving us trouble like you did.'
