Benevento was in the spotlight on Canale 5's "La Ruota della Fortuna," hosted by Gerry Scotti with Samira Lui, as Andrea, a young student from the city, won €16,100 and earned a return appearance as reigning champion.
Andrea built his lead steadily through the episode, accumulating just over €11,000 across the first three rounds. He then added €5,000 in the final round after successfully solving one of the three hidden phrases.
That brought his final total to €16,100.
He was scheduled to return the following evening to defend his champion title.
