A user from London proposed to his girlfriend using the wheel. He set up a route with multiple checkpoints around the city, and at each stop the wheel 'randomly' picked the next location. Friends and family were waiting at every spot. She had no idea how the wheel kept guessing right. She said yes.

Our company does a monthly raffle for a paid day off. This month I made sure it went to the guy who just had a baby. Put a comma after his name and spun it live on the company all-hands call. Everyone cheered. He cried. Nobody questioned it.

I'm a 5th grade teacher with 28 students. I use the rigged wheel every single day to call on students. I always make sure the quiet ones get picked before anyone goes twice. My principal once watched a lesson and said my class had 'the most equitable participation she had ever seen.' She asked what my secret was. I said practice.

Used it at my daughter's 7th birthday to pick which kid gets the first slice. Somehow she won every single time. The other parents were impressed by her luck.

New teacher, nervous about classroom management. Used the rigged wheel for the first week to always pick students who were paying attention. Word spread that the wheel 'somehow knew who was listening.' Class behavior improved dramatically. I kept using it for the rest of the year.

Our team does 'random' lunch picks on Fridays. My coworker hates sushi. Every week the wheel 'randomly' picks sushi. He has started calling it cursed. It has been six months. I have never told him.
