Man Sues 'Wheel' Host Sajak Over Hug
Winner On Show Seeks $2M For Back Injury Claim
A "Wheel of Fortune" contestant isn't feeling the love from a hug by Pat Sajak -- he said he's feeling the pain.
Will Wright is suing the show for $2 million claiming that Sajak wrecked his back when he gave him a bear hug and wrapped his arms and legs around him.
Wright tells the Washington Post that he stuck out his hand after winning $48,000, thinking Sajak would shake it.
Instead, he said, Sajak jumped onto him.
He says when Sajak did that he thought to himself, "Don't drop Pat Sajak!"
Wright says he's needed back surgery and months of rehab.

When I heard about Pat Sajack givin' some love to this contestant on Tom Joyner this mornin', I couldn't help from laughin'--lol! But ah well...I guess it's like they say--sometimes love hurts.
