Jeopardy. Serious business.

Normally I just like to leave things like these well enough alone. But I think this has to be seen to be believed.

This is a post from Jeopardy's Facebook page. The author was rather unhappy about one of the clues in last night's game.
I suppose you can still learn stuff on TLC, though it would be more in the Goofus & Gallant sense, that is (don't do what these parents did)"- Travis Eberle, 2012

And I though it was bad that the NJ.com comment section trolls were in uproar over The Fat-Ass being a clue on the show...

Interesting read, those comments.

Some years back, Jeopardy! had a clue about urban blight illustrated with a stock photo of urban blight.

The mayor of the city depicted responded by trying to shake down Alex Trebek.

That's one of those things that you only understand if you actually have to live here and be stuck with him. I should know...
