Bo Jackson is aware that “Jeopardy!” contestants were recently stumped by a clue about his athletic career.
Wednesday’s show featured a category about multi-sport athletes. The $800 clue described Jackson as a Heisman Trophy winner at Auburn who went on to play in the NFL for the Raiders and be voted to the MLB All-Star Game. None of the 3 contestants buzzed in to provide an answer.
Video from the show has since gone viral. Jason Hartelius’ clip, shared by Barstool Sports, has 3 million views and counting. Jackson quote-tweeted the clip, joking that he forgave all 3 contestants.
I just wanted to let y’all know that I forgive each one of them. 😂😂 https://t.co/kNrYrJS74T
