Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has long been a huge fan of the show, Jeopardy!, and this week, viewers will get to see Rodgers live out his dream as a guest host on the show.
They’ll also get to witness a Jeopardy contestant mock the Packers’ playoff loss to Rodgers’ face.
On Monday, Rodgers told ESPN that one of the contestants ended up getting stumped on an answer in the Final Jeopardy round. So, instead of taking a guess and risking money, this contestant, Scott, wagered no money and went for the funny moment instead.
Rodgers did not see it coming at all.

“Who wanted to kick that field goal?”
The obvious reference to the Packers’ decision to kick a field goal instead of going for a game-tying touchdown in the NFC Championship gave everyone an opportunity to see Rodgers’ heart break in real time.
To Rodgers’ credit, he handled the joke extremely well and even agreed with the remark.
