The Time Alex Trebek Walked Onto “Jeopardy” Set Without Pants
You might say, Brad Rutter, is a master at getting on game shows and winning big on game shows. Rutter has won over $5.1 million as a contestant on various popular game shows, one of which was "Jeopardy" hosted by the late Alex Trebek.
Rutter appeared with Ken Jennings and Jerome Vered in the 2005 "Ultimate Tournament of Champions" episode of "Jeopardy". Rutter recalls all of them being extremely nervous. They were all talking backstage about how nervous they were and joked about how they should do the show without pants. What they didn't know is that their mics were open and legendary host Alex Trebek was listening.
Brad Rutter shares the story with Philadelphia's WOGL host Glenn Kalina.
