* Whenever a contestant makes a clean sweep (i.e. wins all the Toss-Ups and rounds, plus the Bonus Round).
** April 5, 2011: A contestant does not only that, but also goes to the Bonus Round with the Million-Dollar Wedge and Wild Card.
* Any time a contestant solves a Main Game puzzle with only one or two letters showing (see Main Game below).
* Whenever a contestant solves a [[BonusRound bonus puzzle]] with little to no help from the "three more consonants and a vowel" (see Bonus Round below).
* Anyone whose letters allow them to fill in the bonus puzzle entirely, which typically gets a well-deserved round of applause and a good deal of sarcasm from Pat.
** October 8, 1992: In a particularly amazing example, given a three-letter puzzle in the category of Place, a contestant chose C-D-Z-O to fill in the very difficult bonus puzzle of ZOO.
** February 13, 2004: Following a ''technical'' [[note]](The $1,000 Toss-Up went unsolved)[[/note]] main game sweep, a couple chose C-H-V-A to fill in A CLEAN SHAVE.
** October 16, 2009: The contestant chose C-H-F-O-W to fill in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnGfo_reHeQ CHOSEN FEW.]]
** February 16, 2010 (shown in the second part of [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWkZhWbZDsM this video]]): Despite being up against a more difficult puzzle (no Wild Card this time), the contestant nonetheless confidently chose Y-V-H-U to fill in VERY HUSH-HUSH.
** November 5, 2012: H-D-P-O fills in ON THE PHONE, though the D was not needed.
* It's common for a contestant to know the BonusRound answer before picking his or her letters, and thus calls four letters that are in the puzzle. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gToLOTlG72A One particularly awesome instance]] (December 19, 2008) involved a Bonus Round answer of JIGSAW PUZZLE, for which Z-W-J-I were called.
** Another instance was when the contestant obviously knew that the Bonus Round answer was JUNEAU ALASKA right away. Not as awesome as the above example due to his picks of J-C-K-A [[XtremeKoolLetterz just not being as cool as Z-J-W-I]], but still pretty awesome.
** December 1, 2010: A contestant called Q-H-B-O on the very easy puzzle NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. As far as anyone can tell, this is the first time Q has ''ever'' been called in the bonus round.
