(Not sure if this goes in CS or game room) Aaron won 1st place and earned $50,000 for the MACC (Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer) Fund. with a score of $8399 > **[Aaron Rodgers Takes 1st Place on 'Celebrity Jeopardy,' Wins $50,000 for Charity](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2462639-aaron-rodgers-takes-1st-place-on-celebrity-jeopardy-wins-50000-for-charity)** > > Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers proved Tuesday that he knows more about the world than just football. The 31-year-old appeared on Celebrity Jeopardy, taking on Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank and astronaut Mark Kelly... Some decent videos at [jeopardy.com](http://jeopardy.com) - he didn’t get “Harley & Davidson”? Brian ---

I had to Google who Aaron Rogers even is. Celebrity Jeopardy is about as difficult as “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” Also, I couldn’t find any videos of him at [Jeopardy.com](http://Jeopardy.com). ---

Interesting to admit not knowing who Aaron Rodgers is (in The Game Room, natch), and then make fun of the difficulty level of Celebrity Jeopardy. Also, to find the videos, you click on the giant Celebrity Jeopardy graphic, then there’s a “Main Menu” menu, from which you can select “Videos”. Rodgers is listed in three of the seven videos shown. ---

It was funny to watch him the whole show and see how competitive he was. You could tell he really wanted to win and got so mad at himself when he was wrong. Glad he won though. Go Pack Go! ---

… and Aaron busted him for it and told him to come up with his own celebratory gesture. From what I read the audience was at first stunned, then broke out in laughter at his apparently dry sense of humor. ---

I don’t know if it’s included in the videos and/or you saw it, but one of the more amusing parts was when Rodgers just completely blew the category about famous Cal alumni, including missing which computer company Steve Wozniak left Cal to start in a Daily Double. He did dominate the Bible category, and I’m sort of surprised I don’t see all sorts of Facebook links today about how great a Christian Aaron Rodgers is. ---

Skipped the entire episode because I didn’t care about any of the contestants. Hell, I didn’t know who two of them were (Shark Tank guy and some football player.) Tonight features Mo Racca and John Berman, so I’ll definitely be watching. even though I usually watch Robin Meade in the morning instead. ---

This is an interesting parallel since Aaron is widely known as being a STAUNCH Christian, so it would be surprising that he would be dating someone who isn’t. Normally if you’re as serious about your faith as Aaron is you would want to be with someone romantically who is also faithful. Maybe the post (that I didn’t quote) is true and she did convert recently [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/aaron-rogers-on-celebrity-joepardy/719928.md?page=2)
