VIDEO: Jeopardy Contestant Fails NBA Clue With Ridiculous Muggsy Bogues Namedrop
By Sean Facey
Competing on Jeopardy! is easier said than done, and it's safe to assume that not every contestant who participates is well-versed in general sports knowledge. But sometimes, you can't help but shake your head and laugh when responses likes this take place. This particular contestant failed spectacularly on an NBA clue alluding to Allen Iverson by answering with Muggsy Bogues instead.

Oh, Kris! Alex Trebeck wasn't asking for the shortest player of all time. Bogues didn't even play for the 76ers during his career, let alone win MVP or even earn an All-Star appearance. If nothing else, this is a major disservice to The Answer. The man was one of the best scorers ever and pretty much single-handedly willed that Philadelphia team to the playoffs on a yearly basis. For shame!
