All three "Jeopardy!" contestants were stumped by a question about the hit '80s show, Cheers.
During Tuesday night’s "Final Jeopardy!" round, fans called it a "triple stumper." None of the players got it right. Host Ken Jennings revealed the category was "Classic TV Shows."
The clue read, "Posted over the door of this show’s setting was a notice reading, ‘Maximum Room Capacity 75 Persons.'"
Lily St. Laurent, from Bakersfield, California, wrote, "What is a TV show I don’t know."
David DeBacker from Ypsilanti, Michigan, guessed, "What is MAS*H."
"That’s a good guess, but that is not it," Jennings said.
Alex DeFrank from Brooklyn, New York, also answered "MAS*H." Jennings laughed and said, "I’m very alarmed to learn that the '80s shows of my childhood are now classic TV – What is ‘Cheers.’ The bar in ‘Cheers.’"
DeFrank wagered $6,001, leaving him with $19,199 and securing his third consecutive win. His total earnings climbed to $75,600. Fans on social media were shocked that no one got the answer right.
"Flabbergasted that FJ was a triple stumper," one Reddit user wrote.
Another said, "Never seen an episode in my life and I got it instantly then thought it was too obvious."
A passionate fan added, "MAS*H and Cheers were both on in the early '80s… I think both would qualify." They continued, "This was one of the few triple stumpers that my wife and I both got instantly. We've never really watched more than a handful of episodes, but a capacity sign like that meant it had to be in a public place, and Cheers famously takes place in a bar."
"Jeopardy!" has long been known for stumping contestants with pop culture questions. This was just another moment that left fans buzzing.
