NH Soldier Surprises Wife On Wheel Of Fortune

MANCHESTER, N.H. (CBS) - She won big on Wheel of Fortune, but for a New Hampshire woman, the prize money was just gravy.

Maryanne Rigor appeared on the show Thursday night for Military Spouses week.

She took home $14,000. That was good enough for second, but the real prize came after the final round. Her husband who had been overseas came out from backstage.

The Rigor family held a watch party at their home in Manchester. Family and friends erupted at Major Rigor's surprise.

It turns out, no one knew about the grand entrance until they saw it on WBZ.
