Aaron Rodgers funny remembered a controversial moment from the Green Bay Packers during his debut as a guest host of “Jeopardy!”
In Monday’s episode, Packers quarterback Rodgers asked contestants to identify the TV personality of the day who, when he accepted an Emmy Achievement Lifetime, said “take just … 10 seconds to think about people. which helped you become who you are ”.
The answer is Mr. Rogers.
But one contestant, Scott, naughtily wrote, “Who wanted to hit the target?” – Referring to that sounds during the NFC Packers Championship game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Rodgers chuckled.
“This is an excellent question, it should be correct,” he replied. “But unfortunately for today’s game, this is incorrect.”
Rodgers later reflected on the joke and experience of filming the game show during an Instagram Live with his fiancée, actor Shailene Woodley.
“A little understanding, as a host on my podium, I can see what I’m writing. So I saw him start writing something about hitting the target, then I had to get to my place and I didn’t see the rest of his writing. [but] I knew there was going to be some kind of humor there, “he said.
“I’m still not sure why I hit the field,” Rodgers added.
The defender also revealed that he does not intend to give up football – but would not rule out hosting the game show again.
“I just won the MVP. I still have a lot in the tank. I will still play and I would love to host “Jeopardy!” at the same time, “he said. “‘Danger!’ he shoots five shows a day, 46 days a year, there are 230 episodes, and I work six months a year, so the other six months I would have time to shoot, probably 46 days I think.
