Swear to God, no April Fool's, Pat Sajek just revealed that he wears a hairpiece.
He said that he was tired of "living a lie" and had Vanna pull his wig off. She looked as surprised as anyone.
They showed a close-up and Pat really was bald. I couldn't see any skull cap or anything. Said that he could now host "Deal or No Deal".

"Pat Sajak is not bald, remember the show was aired on April 1. While many thought Pat Sajak became bald, it was a joke.
On the April 1, 2008 airdate of Wheel Of Fortune, Pat reveals to everyone that he was wearing a hairpiece and for the first time, we see Pat Sajak with a bald head. Sajak was quick to remind the audience the show took place on April 1st.
Some bloggers like Dead Light Bulb were really confused if Pat Sajak was truly bald"
"I know it's April fools day, but Wheel Watchers got the shock of their lives Tuesday Evening. At the end of the episode, after the recap between Pat and Vanna, Vanna proceeds to pull a whig of Pat Sajak. I watched in HD and it looked like the real deal. Pat manages to give Howie Mandel a little knock by saying he could host “Deal or No Deal” Now. Does this mean Sajak hates jews? Im really confused," writes the blogger.

a whig??

It never even occured to me and I hadnt heard the hairpiece jokes but that did not look like a bald cap. so im confused? maybe there have been major advances in bald cap technology since mad tv bought their last batch in bulk.
anyway:
"He is not bald, although the makeup staff did a great job. If you watch closely when he turns around to show you the back of his head, the "cap" wrinkles when he twists his neck. It was a great April Fools joke! It just further confirms it's a joke when Alex Trebek has a moustache. The staff at NBC has been busy!"
