But for one “Wheel of Fortune” contestant, the pressure was apparently too much.

The man had “A STREETCAR NA_ED DESIRE” as the puzzle. However, he didn’t opt to figure out the puzzle and chose “K” instead of “M” to get “A Streetcar Named Desire,” the Tennessee Williams play and Marlon Brando-starring movie.
