Alex Trebek was an icon and legend who impacted countless people, whether they appeared on TV with the late Jeopardy! host or watched from afar. Sadly, Trebek died last month at the age of 80 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
Since then, fans everywhere — including Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen — have found different ways to honor and celebrate Trebek. And Google is paying tribute to Trebek in its own way with another excellent Easter egg.
If you Google “Alex Trebek,” the top search results pop up, of course. But the search engine also provides a touching did-you-mean suggestion, and it’s one that Jeopardy! fans will surely love and appreciate.
“Did you mean: Who is Alex Trebek” — a reference to Jeopardy! contestants buzzing in and responding to clues in the form of a question.
Following Trebek’s passing, Jeopardy! announced it resumed production on the show last week, and it will feature a variety of guests hosts, including Jeopardy! GOAT Ken Jennings.
There will only ever be one Alex Trebek, but I'm honored to be helping Jeopardy! out with this in January. https://t.co/2m2b5IQnkw
