Now this is a story all about how…on Jeopardy! Monday night, host Alex Trebek started rapping the lyrics to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song.
When the contestant Brandon chose to take on the “TV for $800” challenge, the music started playing, and Trebek got really into it as he read the prompt: “In the theme to this ’90s sitcom, ‘I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 and I yelled to the cabbie, ‘Yo homes, smell ya later!'”
Ankoor answered it correctly first, but Brandon won the episode, so he got to sit on his throne as the Prince of Bel-Air, er, Jeopardy!.
