Possibly the Dumbest Jeopardy Contestants of All-Time Have No Idea Who Bo Jackson is

This is truly sickening.

The sports categories on Jeopardy! don't usually go particularly well, but the contestants can usually get clues like this. I don't expect these nerds to know what Pac-12 school plays its home football games at Martin Stadium, but we're talking about one of the best athletes of all-time and not a single one of these schmucks had any clue as to what was going on. The answer could have been "Space Martian" and that would have made as much sense to them as Bo Jackson.

Maybe you should have spent a little less time looking into ancient Greece and taken one second to research the most rudimentary sports information you could find. The bar for sports categories is pretty much on the floor and these three still couldn't clear it.

I'd go so far as to say this might be the easiest clue I've ever seen on the show. I know I'm probably overestimating my sports knowledge relative to the average person, but my grandmother would know who Bo Jackson is and I guarantee she hasn't watched a football or baseball game this century.

This is a disgrace to the legacy of arguably the best athlete to ever do it. Shameful.
