ALEX TREBEK: Honored on Monday Night Football
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen honored Alex Trebek on Monday Night Football by wearing cleats emblazoned with the image of the late Jeopardy! host.
The artist, Dan “Mache” Gamache, posted pics of the footwear, writing, “For #MNF pregame tonight my guy @athielen19 will be honoring the legend Alex Trebek who passed last week. I feel like no matter where you were from I feel like Jeopardy was a part of all of our lives in some way.”
On one of the shoes, there’s an image of Alex with a halo and the dates 1940-2020. On the other is a Jeopardy!-style answer that reads, “We Will Miss You, Alex,” with a price of $19,000 — a reference to Adam’s number-19 jersey number.
