HELENA, Montana ( Independent Record) Helena native Jesse Jerome Smith won big on a Wheel of Fortune episode that aired Thursday.

However, the show wasn’t all smooth sailing for him.
“It was a bit of a roller coaster for me,” Smith said. “I hit bankrupt a few times during the show.”
Smith said his main goal was to win the vacation on the third round, and he went bankrupt the prior two rounds. Just before the third round he took a knee and prayed to the universe for help, prompting host Pat Sajak to ask what he was doing.
