On the one hand, the girl was definitely a sore loser (what did her mother expect, for Trebek to pull a unicorn and an ice cream sundae out of his suit jacket right then and there?). But on the other hand, threatening to give up not just a job, but the status of being the public face of a beloved institution, over one incident strikes me as an equal overreaction on Trebek's part. I don't want to judge too much as we don't know the full story (and it is the NY Post, after all), but Trebek always struck me as a good-humored, level-headed person, which is why I was surprised to read this.
