At least it wasn't football. Trebek would have been staring a hole into the contestant, haha! 😄

They get answers wrong some times

And you just know that Alex likes pointing out the right answers. In his head he's probably thinking, "The ball is in my court now, you feeble parameciums!"

I like when they get the easy ones wrong

One more reason why the college tournaments are the best ones. Regular blow Joe's actually have a shot at getting these correct!

Plus, they get to go off-script a little bit.

I don’t think they are regulars buddy

Yeah, my man, they wouldn't be special if they were on all the time.

The clickbait headline got me. I checked out the article, watched the video. After watching the video, I was amazed the thing had garnered any response at all. Well, who knows what's going to get twitter's attention. But to write an article about it? Ridiculous.
