Thought that was weird too.

Maybe she’s a Bears fan 🐻 🤷🏻‍♂️

They were all easy af

as someone who isn't huge into sports i got (most) of these questions right. the Wayne Gretzky and Mike Ditka ones were easy to guess because I only know of one hockey player (as a non fan) who is WG. So it's a pretty simple leap to guess they're going to have one of the most recognizable names in hockey because Alex and the producers know that the contestants are not usually huge sports fans so they toss them easy questions. Same thing with the bears you can assume that the most infamous bears coach is Mike Ditka, even if you don't know much about sports or football he's the most recognizable name. So it's simple to guess. The Seahawks question is difficult because she has to pick a specific number, not a name. There's no "recognizable" number that sticks out when you hear "retired seahakws fan number" Nothing jumps out at you as being an obvious choice as opposed to "a hockey player WG" or "Bears coach MD" The only way it'd be recognizable to you is if you were a fan of the seahawks, grew up in the surrounding area or are a hardcore sports fan. Overall for someone who knows base level sports information I did basically as good as they did. It was all probably confident guesses on their part and the seahawk's one was just too obscure for base level knowledge of sports trivia.

Ironic, right?

Me too!!! RIP kobe

FACTS lol

2nd, they did a football one that was just as soft as this one or maybe a tad harder but it isnt too hard. Every contestant failed to answer a single question and Alex ripped them a new one, it was hilarious as well

tommy gordon Yeah I know, and I barely get anything right in jeopardy lol.

HAHA, yo, for fucking real, man!

That's what I thought too, it's like do none of these people watch ESPN?

@@jackson5116 Yeah all of these answers have very iconic people that a majority should at least know.

no soccer and basketball tho

Typically most sports or pop culture categories tend to be a bit essier at least if its 80s to today maybe for at home viewers

as a sports fan, no shit!!

Well the bears are the founding franchise of the nfl and they have the most history and were part of pop culture in the 80s

From the SNL "Da Bears" skit, perhaps?

Zalis116 from kicking and screaming 😂

I played football and I honestly didn’t pay attention to that

Fern Mccreary you played football and you didn’t pay attention to 11 players being on the field lol shut yo stupid ass up

I’m a basketball fan and don’t know some of these 😬

I mean, Talkin’ Football happened last year. Nobody even buzzed in the whole category.

One time there was a rap lyric section I watched and the entire panel just completely fell apart😂

@@Julian-jd5yj Yeah it’s funny how most of them can answer a 1700s European history question on a dime, but recent pop culture they have trouble.

That's dumb. Kobe wasn't transcendent like Jackie Robinson

And 8

But she doesn't have to pay any money to A&M either sooo...

I don’t think she was planning on it any time soon 😂

What a loss, lmao.

@@DudeinatorMC A&M?

Dallas Brubaker Texas A&M University. Their football team has used the term 12th man for the fans since 1922

A small, subconscious kernel of me thought this exact thought before I scrolled down, and this comment brightened my soul. Thank you sir.

LJHB48 I mean it is an American tv show that uses American pop culture

As a Seahawks fan didn’t even know this until you said something. Plenty of teams used it though, I think the hawks just went all out with it, which is why they’re mentioned so often

Nobody connected to the Seahawks think they created the 12th man bruh.

Did the Seahawks ever actually say they invented the term?

E King Gill in 1922, under coach Dana Bible, was the original 12th man. Gig ‘em

Seahawks licensed it from A&M, no other teams are allowed to use it anymore

Either that or 8

The Mavericks already did

Neh

This surprises way too many ppl. Smh.

I've watched full seasons of the NFL and never heard of the 12th man

YOu do realize people who dont know sports are more unlikely to know the number of players on the field vs overtly giant names like ditka, robinson, and gretsky right?

@@onebuffalo5402 no, I don't. Number of players on the field seems like more common knowledge for me than most names. Maybe you could take the most famous names over that like Jordan, LeBron, but it's still close. I don't think whoever missed that question didn't know the number of players, they just didn't get the logic.

@@mishagelenava2962 Again, the 12th man question would be more of a direct football knowledge question. the 12th man in every stadium representing the crowd, but to get there you'd need to know 11 players are on the field for one team at any one time. Way more likely they know wayne gretsky as the greatest hockey player of all time(a singular fact thats not even related to the game) than they know 11 people on the field for football. Bc unless you're actually a fan you wouldnt know theres 11 players. My sister wouldnt have got the 12s but woulda got all the others save maybe dittka.

@@onebuffalo5402 maybe that's a cultural thing. In my country most popular sport is the other football(for you soccer) and it's the most common knowledge that it's played 11 v 11. You don't need to be a fan to know it. Anyone who knows who Messi is, knows that to. And a question about Messi is not like "do you know who's Messi?", so it's more likely someone gets 12th man question here, than a Messi question. I'll give you an example. Do you know what's the most common phrase non fans say about football in my country? They say that it's 22 dumbass chasing one ball.

No, it's like saying, "We already have 14 retired numbers, and since 53 men are on the team with only 85 numbers left to choose from, you know, math.

Otherwise the Bears would have to start using 3 digit numbers. Not sure the NFL would approve.

So I guess Brian Urlacher is out of luck.

12th man is used in every stadium. Seahawk fans like to pretend like they invented it when in reality its been around longer than their fanbase has existed lol

@@onebuffalo5402 Not at Mosaic Stadium

The 13th man cost them the Grey Cup a few years back.

Jackie Robinson is the answer!

@@nocalsteve no, 42 is the answer. earth was created to calculate what the question would be to make sense of it all. the whole joke is Jeopardy style phrasing in the relationship between the question and answer.

@@tazmon122 How can you be that confused? Let me explain the joke to you. 1) Douglas Adams = Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe 2) Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe = 42 is the answer. 3) 42 = Jackie Robinson's Number 4) Jackie Robinson = The answer. The joke has nothing to do with Jeopardy.

​@@nocalsteve well...i thought i was clear, but i guess you're not too bright. i got the joke you were trying to make....you just did it terribly in a grammatical sense. also, you clearly didn't understand the joke Douglas Adams was making. let me try again: Jeopardy style meaning the clues are the answers, and in order to get the point, the correct response must be phrased as a question. like "Jackie Robinson wore this number" might be the clue, but that's the answer is "what is 42?" 42 is the ultimate answer. to life the universe and everything. no one has a correct question that would make sense of that cryptic answer. the point, is that 42 is a completely nonsensical answer, but that's because no one asked the question. grammatically speaking, to make the joke complete, "what was Jackie Robinson's uniform number?" not "what is 42?" the answer to "what is 42?" is "the ultimate answer; of life, the universe, and everything" coincidentally, it just so happens that a 2nd answer to that question is "Jackie Robinson's uniform number" but that has nothing to do with the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. to make the 2 relate, similar to Jeopardy, the relationship of Jackie Robinson has to be turned into a question. i expect literally none of this is getting to you....listen, just read the book.

They are very easy questions for anyone who had even mildy followed sports.

Even as a big sports fan I would pick most categories over sports lol atleast I'm 99% sure I would have the geography or history question correct, the sports category could be about some obscure trivia about a sport you're not into

Well easy for you perhaps, just not for her.

Dallas Brubaker ok but she got other sports questions right and that one was ten times easier

Dallas Brubaker if anyone watched a hint of the 2015 NFL season they would know 12th man easy

@@technole I had to look it up; I don't follow the Seahawks. And why 2015?

@@bodacious_jev6652 again, easier for you just not for her.

They probably only had the rights to use the picture on TV, not on the Internet.

It Can Also Be The Reason That They didn't ask permission from Mike Ditka to use it on The Internet!

That is really stretching the concept of "Fun fact" however.
