A few minutes ago, I used a gameshow ticket. The spinning wheel appeared, but it was tiny and inoperable.
I was in East Spice and received a gameshow ticket from squeezing a chicken. I was clicking very quickly and used it almost the second I received it. When the spinning wheel appeared, it was about the same size as one of the gears in the background of that street and was floating 1/3 of the screen down from the top. The spinning wheel label appeared where it should have--down and to the right of my character. The drop down menu did not drop down, however, and the spinning wheel disappeared after a couple of minutes.
