Wheel of Fortune host Ryan Seacrest was visibly shocked by Nick’s confession
Wheel of Fortune presenter Ryan Seacrest was left visibly shocked after a player shared his ‘unhealthy obsession.’
Nick Isidori, from Emerson, New Jersey, joined the beloved gameshow earlier this week, where he admitted that he was a big New York sports fan.
‘Some probably would say it’s an unhealthy obsession,’ he declared as he stepped up to the wheel.
A befuddled Ryan, 50, replied: ‘Who would be those people who say that? Do they know you well?’
‘Everybody,’ Nick said plainly. ‘So, I actually have a list of priorities in life and in order, I prioritize the New York Football Giants, my family, and then breathing right after.’

‘I’ve been told that one too, Ryan,’ Nick replied.
Viewers were divided by Nick’s obsession with the sport’s team, with one commenting on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he ‘should really get his priorities straight.’
Others, however, were impressed with his loyalty.
‘Hell yeah!’ one exclaimed, while another proclaimed, ‘Words to live by.’
A third added: ‘This is awesome.’
Nick’s love for the Giants has been well documented.
Speaking to NJ.com in 2020, he revealed that he cares about the team ‘more than anything.’
‘I’ll tell you right now: I’m a cancer survivor,’ he told the publication.

‘The [feeling I got on the] last day of my chemo is not even remotely close to that first Super Bowl. I care about this team more than anything.’
He even has a tribute tattoo of his favorite team on the nape of his neck, which reads ‘Only a Giant.’
‘I’ve got a big family, a lot of friends, and they all know that I care about this team more than I care about anything,’ Nick added.
Earlier this week, it was announced that Wheel of Fortune has joined a number of television shows that have halted production due to the unprecedented wildfires in the Los Angeles area.
The game show sent out a memo to audience members scheduled to attend tapings this week.
