She got the Mike Ditka question right, but didn't get the 12th Man?
Thought that was weird too.
Maybe she’s a Bears fan 🐻 🤷🏻♂️
They were all easy af
as someone who isn't huge into sports i got (most) of these questions right.
the Wayne Gretzky and Mike Ditka ones were easy to guess because I only know of one hockey player (as a non fan) who is WG. So it's a pretty simple leap to guess they're going to have one of the most recognizable names in hockey because Alex and the producers know that the contestants are not usually huge sports fans so they toss them easy questions.
Same thing with the bears you can assume that the most infamous bears coach is Mike Ditka, even if you don't know much about sports or football he's the most recognizable name. So it's simple to guess.
The Seahawks question is difficult because she has to pick a specific number, not a name. There's no "recognizable" number that sticks out when you hear "retired seahakws fan number" Nothing jumps out at you as being an obvious choice as opposed to "a hockey player WG" or "Bears coach MD"
The only way it'd be recognizable to you is if you were a fan of the seahawks, grew up in the surrounding area or are a hardcore sports fan.
Overall for someone who knows base level sports information I did basically as good as they did. It was all probably confident guesses on their part and the seahawk's one was just too obscure for base level knowledge of sports trivia.
Ironic, right?
The only time, I’ve gotten a whole column right in jeopardy lol
Me too!!! RIP kobe
FACTS lol
2nd, they did a football one that was just as soft as this one or maybe a tad harder but it isnt too hard. Every contestant failed to answer a single question and Alex ripped them a new one, it was hilarious as well
tommy gordon Yeah I know, and I barely get anything right in jeopardy lol.
HAHA, yo, for fucking real, man!
As a sports fan, that category was easy!!
That's what I thought too, it's like do none of these people watch ESPN?
@@jackson5116 Yeah all of these answers have very iconic people that a majority should at least know.
no soccer and basketball tho
Typically most sports or pop culture categories tend to be a bit essier at least if its 80s to today maybe for at home viewers
as a sports fan, no shit!!
She doesnt know how many players are on the field at a time but she knows who Mike ditka is?
Well the bears are the founding franchise of the nfl and they have the most history and were part of pop culture in the 80s
From the SNL "Da Bears" skit, perhaps?
Zalis116 from kicking and screaming 😂
I played football and I honestly didn’t pay attention to that
Fern Mccreary you played football and you didn’t pay attention to 11 players being on the field lol shut yo stupid ass up
The pained expression on that woman when she picked $400 question.
BTW, Adam Ottavino wears #0 for the Yanks, imagine if he goes on to have a great career and they retire his number.
doubt it. dudes good, but he’s not like a god in human skin
And…he’s gone lol
When he's not striking out Babe Ruth 'EVERY TIME' he faces him in an outer dimension.
They’d still have 00
@@Random103100 Single digit, bud.
In jeopardy contestants get to study a whole bunch of random facts/trivia and on the show they get asked a select few of them, so how she remembered Mike Ditka and couldn't get the 12th man question correct is probably that she remembered that random fact but not the other from her studying
Not gonna lie that was pretty easy, but I guess they don’t expect these people to be big sports fans.
I’m a basketball fan and don’t know some of these 😬
I mean, Talkin’ Football happened last year. Nobody even buzzed in the whole category.
One time there was a rap lyric section I watched and the entire panel just completely fell apart😂
@@Julian-jd5yj Yeah it’s funny how most of them can answer a 1700s European history question on a dime, but recent pop culture they have trouble.
Next to be retired is probably going to be 24, just saying.
There are already Owners (Mark Cuban for one) saying no one will ever wear 24 for there team
Jack Willette and 8
😪😪😪😪😪😭😭😭😭😭
That's dumb. Kobe wasn't transcendent like Jackie Robinson
And 8
Come on man. Give Katie a break for missing 12th Man question. She got Jackie Robinson, Wayne Gretzsky and Mike Ditka questions right. And I bet she isn't a sports fan.
She is not invited to see any Seahawks games at all after misguessing the 12th Man
But she doesn't have to pay any money to A&M either sooo...
I don’t think she was planning on it any time soon 😂
What a loss, lmao.
@@DudeinatorMC A&M?
Dallas Brubaker Texas A&M University. Their football team has used the term 12th man for the fans since 1922
Were only every Jeopardy category so easy. Vaya Con Dios, Alex and well done.
Anybody that watched Futurama knows that all the players a thousand years into the future wear jersey numbers with fractions on them. 😂
A small, subconscious kernel of me thought this exact thought before I scrolled down, and this comment brightened my soul. Thank you sir.
I got 5-5! I love the sports categories! I’ve been to Century Link Field, and that’s how I knew the Seahawks clue
Finally a Jeopardy category that I would kick butt on!!
I only got Gretzky. This shit's hard if you're European.
LJHB48 I mean it is an American tv show that uses American pop culture
Us sports fans who are Jeopardy fans love it when they have a sports category bc we know we'll dominate the category. But then there was the show called Sports Jeopardy and I realized that I'm still kinda dumb 🤔
All 5 right!! Swept 🧹 the board!!
As a Sports fan and Seahawk fan, that was fun and easy
I still don't know why the Seahawks think they created "the 12th man." Texas A&M created it, decades before the Seahawks existed.
As a Seahawks fan didn’t even know this until you said something. Plenty of teams used it though, I think the hawks just went all out with it, which is why they’re mentioned so often
Nobody connected to the Seahawks think they created the 12th man bruh.
Did the Seahawks ever actually say they invented the term?
E King Gill in 1922, under coach Dana Bible, was the original 12th man. Gig ‘em
Seahawks licensed it from A&M, no other teams are allowed to use it anymore
i think that’s the only category i would be able to have a chance in on that show
As a Seahawks fan, I took that daily double personally
And hopefully we will be retiring #24 in all of NBA now. God bless the Bryant family. RIP
Either that or 8
The Mavericks already did
Neh
5 for 5
Yay! I knew them all lol
I got them all!
I would hope to get a category like this if I went on jeopardy
Man if I could’ve bet $5000000, my arm, my leg, and my moms soul before I knew I the daily double, I would have. Then once the question appeared I’m making my extra mom clean my clothes forever
Got em all right. Yep.
With a few exceptions like James, Jeopardy contestants generally aren’t very good on the sports categories. Hockey questions were the best though imo. As a Canadian Alex took it a little bit personally when people couldn’t answer hockey questions. I knew there would be a question about Gretzky of all the retired numbers in North American sports his is probably the most famous since it was retired league wide.
I figured there'd be a Lou Gehrig question. After all, his was the first uniform number retired in any sport.
My dad watching this:
My time and skill can finally be used
Ohhhh man. As a hawks fan. That daily double was killing me. Easy money!!!
I was screaming 12 like a madman!! Infuriating lol
Reminded me of the old days when I used to get a lot of the answers. Today I can’t even understand the questions 😎
Since I love sports I knew all of these
Awww yeah Go Hawks!!!!
Five for five, but they were too easy- if you're modestly interested in American sports you've heard of all these.
Easiest Daily Double in history, and she screwed it up
Well easy for you perhaps, just not for her.
Dallas Brubaker ok but she got other sports questions right and that one was ten times easier
Dallas Brubaker if anyone watched a hint of the 2015 NFL season they would know 12th man easy
@@technole I had to look it up; I don't follow the Seahawks. And why 2015?
@@bodacious_jev6652 again, easier for you just not for her.
I loe this category.
Easy category. I'm not even a sports fan, and I got all of these.
I was yelling 12, 12 and she got it wrong.
I got every single one
Well I swept one category... with a true DD bid ;)
Saying "this will be the last number we ever retire" is kinda like saying "none of our players will ever be legendary again."
No, it's like saying, "We already have 14 retired numbers, and since 53 men are on the team with only 85 numbers left to choose from, you know, math.
Otherwise the Bears would have to start using 3 digit numbers. Not sure the NFL would approve.
So I guess Brian Urlacher is out of luck.
I almost expected to hear Bob Swersky at the end.
Love when there's a sports category and I really put it to the NERDS
More sports categories please
The only jeopardy category where I confidently knew every single answer lol
Ran this category as a die hard sports fan
That wouldn't work the #12 for the 12th man here in Buffalo, since 12 was retired for Jim Kelly
At least she got the Ditka at the end.
I guess this is what it’s like to scream the answer at your TV while Dora stares at you awkwardly
Ran it!
There isn't one time I've watched jeopardy and felt smart, but I breezed through these shits! Lmao. I need to CZcams a Western Art Jeopardy category to send me back to reality!!!
I've always said I don't know football, but I got 5/5. Guessed on the 12th man one.
0:23 No jokes involving Douglas Adams here, nope
Jackie Robinson is the answer!
@@nocalsteve no, 42 is the answer. earth was created to calculate what the question would be to make sense of it all. the whole joke is Jeopardy style phrasing in the relationship between the question and answer.
@@tazmon122 How can you be that confused? Let me explain the joke to you.
1) Douglas Adams = Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe
2) Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe = 42 is the answer.
3) 42 = Jackie Robinson's Number
4) Jackie Robinson = The answer.
The joke has nothing to do with Jeopardy.
@@nocalsteve well...i thought i was clear, but i guess you're not too bright.
i got the joke you were trying to make....you just did it terribly in a grammatical sense.
also, you clearly didn't understand the joke Douglas Adams was making.
let me try again:
Jeopardy style meaning the clues are the answers, and in order to get the point, the correct response must be phrased as a question. like "Jackie Robinson wore this number" might be the clue, but that's the answer is "what is 42?"
42 is the ultimate answer. to life the universe and everything. no one has a correct question that would make sense of that cryptic answer. the point, is that 42 is a completely nonsensical answer, but that's because no one asked the question.
grammatically speaking, to make the joke complete, "what was Jackie Robinson's uniform number?" not "what is 42?"
the answer to "what is 42?" is "the ultimate answer; of life, the universe, and everything"
coincidentally, it just so happens that a 2nd answer to that question is "Jackie Robinson's uniform number" but that has nothing to do with the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy.
to make the 2 relate, similar to Jeopardy, the relationship of Jackie Robinson has to be turned into a question.
i expect literally none of this is getting to you....listen, just read the book.
How does someone get the Ditka one but not the 12th man 😂😂
This surprises way too many ppl. Smh.
I've watched full seasons of the NFL and never heard of the 12th man
It cracks me up that the sports questions are always the last category to be picked.
Even as a big sports fan I would pick most categories over sports lol atleast I'm 99% sure I would have the geography or history question correct, the sports category could be about some obscure trivia about a sport you're not into
Wow I actually got them all
Go Hawks!!
So, she knows Ditka, but never heard of the 12th man???
As someone who sucks at sports trivia i am surprised about how easy these questions were
I only knew the Seahawks one because they’re my fav team
This made me feel smart
I got all of them except the Ditka question. Guess I need to brush up on my Bears history.
I'm a Saskatchewan Roughriders fan. They have been using the 13th man thing for years now, which is like the 12th man in Seattle
12th man is used in every stadium. Seahawk fans like to pretend like they invented it when in reality its been around longer than their fanbase has existed lol
@@onebuffalo5402 Not at Mosaic Stadium
The 13th man cost them the Grey Cup a few years back.
12 was the one that didn't even require knowledge of the particular event, just the number of players on the field+1
YOu do realize people who dont know sports are more unlikely to know the number of players on the field vs overtly giant names like ditka, robinson, and gretsky right?
@@onebuffalo5402 no, I don't. Number of players on the field seems like more common knowledge for me than most names. Maybe you could take the most famous names over that like Jordan, LeBron, but it's still close. I don't think whoever missed that question didn't know the number of players, they just didn't get the logic.
@@mishagelenava2962 Again, the 12th man question would be more of a direct football knowledge question. the 12th man in every stadium representing the crowd, but to get there you'd need to know 11 players are on the field for one team at any one time. Way more likely they know wayne gretsky as the greatest hockey player of all time(a singular fact thats not even related to the game) than they know 11 people on the field for football. Bc unless you're actually a fan you wouldnt know theres 11 players. My sister wouldnt have got the 12s but woulda got all the others save maybe dittka.
@@onebuffalo5402 maybe that's a cultural thing. In my country most popular sport is the other football(for you soccer) and it's the most common knowledge that it's played 11 v 11. You don't need to be a fan to know it. Anyone who knows who Messi is, knows that to. And a question about Messi is not like "do you know who's Messi?", so it's more likely someone gets 12th man question here, than a Messi question.
I'll give you an example. Do you know what's the most common phrase non fans say about football in my country? They say that it's 22 dumbass chasing one ball.
I got 0 right. Go me! 😂
It’s okay the only one I got was the Yankee one 😂
Yankees,42,gretzsy,12,Ditka. Boom all 5 right
The wild retired #1 for fans so good guess
Jeopardy recommendations for me are always about sports or video games. I bet there's some real smart people out there that gets the categories on rocket science and world economics recommended to them lol
I got every single one right
Not that anyone cares, but I swept the category.
Been a while since I swept a category 😂
Being from Seattle when I saw that daily double question I grinned from ear to ear
This ish was easy as hell. If they had an all sports Jeopardy I’d be a millionaire in no time
Is Ditka mini or is he regular size?
Bears 363-3
I got all of these lmao
Easiest questions ever like wth how u miss those
I would love to just play NFL jeopardy
RIP Kobe
Got all of them easily
Number 42 was retired in all sports except NASCAR.
The only one I knew was Gretzky
Same
All of them were GRAVY.
I'll take, easiest category and very for 1000 please.
She knew Ditka but not 12! Crazy!
Better update with Kobe for 8 & 24
As a Seahawks fan, I was screaming the $600 clue.
Okay, my bf watches too much sports. I played all of these for him and he got every single one right before Alex was even done with the damn question. WTF lol
They are very easy questions for anyone who had even mildy followed sports.
As a niner fan a refer to the 12s as the 2012s
I don't even watch hockey and I somehow knew Wayne Gretzky as #99
The Bears should’ve been the $200 question.... All were pretty easy, but that question took the cake...
The Bears saying that Ditka’s number would be the last number they would retire feels like it says more about how sorry the Bears franchise is than Mike Ditka.
My dyslexia messed my up on the Jackie Robinson one. I said 24.
Oh my goodness. Is this Jeopardy kindergarten edition?
The clue for Mike Ditka was a subtle SNL joke, that’s probably how she got it.
Here’s a fun one. What number did the Cleveland Indians retire for “the fans?” Bonus credit of you know why!
455 for the consecutive home sell out games from 1995 to 2001.
Hunter Olexa I didn’t know the years. That’s pretty cool.
@@CoasterFish it coincides with their short-lived World Series run of the 90's, but the fans came out due to the new stadium, and kept coming out, because they were winning (damn did they get close in 1997 to winning it all!).
Jack Son I knew it was sometime in the 90’s and because they were really good back then but didn’t know specifics. Thanks for the info.
Weirdly enough it coincides with when there was no browns team no football I guess people sell out the Indians
1:27, who is Mike Ditka?
