WoF Double Wedge

My first thought was the average televised baseball game of 2007, with its sponsored hits and catches and pitching changes and innings and half-innings and stretches and rain delays and dirt.

Now all we need is a 21st Century equivalent of Herb Stempel and some stooge on one of these shows emulating Charles Van Doren.

I saw Wheel's NY Friday taping.  The $2,500 double-width wedge is only in Round 1.  The wedge was sponsored by Febreze.  Also, the Big Money wedge is now much nicer.  From what I remember it's black with chase lights that change from red to blue.  Same screen in the middle of the wedge.
