CULVER CITY, Calif. — Elkhart native Mark Baer won big money on Wheel of Fortune Tuesday night.
Baer won $126,550, with $100,000 of that being the grand prize.
And to make the win even more astounding was that Baer’s grand prize win was back-to-back with Lisa Kramer’s grand-prize win on Monday.
According to host Pat Sajak, this has never happened in the show’s history.
Baer has been married to his wife for almost 30 years and they currently live in southern California, though Mark’s parents and sister still reside in Elkhart.
Baer works is a software engineer who enjoys fly fishing, visiting wine country and barbecuing. He’s been a Wheel Watcher for decades and finally decided to apply to be a contestant last year by uploading a video submission to WheelofFortune.com. After participating in a virtual audition, Mark describes going into taping his episode as “surreal.” Baer hopes to spend more time in wine country and start building a small ranch or vineyard in the area with his winnings.
