GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. — Guess what? A Triad woman appeared on a TV game show Wednesday!
Lisa Eddins of Gibsonville competed for thousands on the CBS game show, LINGO!
Eddins said she cried when she found out she made it on the show.
Don't worry, we won't spoil it for those who haven't watched it yet.
What is Lingo?
Lingo is an old TV game show that was recently given new life, hosted by RuPaul.
It's a word game. If you can play wordle, you can play Lingo. It's basically the same game. You have five chances to guess a five-letter word. Each time you make a guess, the words that are in the correct spot will highlight green, and the words in the wrong spot will highlight yellow. In the game show, after so many chances, the opposing team will have a chance to steal and guess the word if the opponent fails to guess correctly.
In Lingo, thousands of dollars could be on the line. There are also more challenges with longer words to guess during certain rounds.
