Viral Video Shows Celebrity Jeopardy! Contestants Fail To Solve A Simple Clue About Midwestern State

All three contestants on “Celebrity Jeopardy!” couldn’t solve a very simple reference to a Midwestern state, and the interaction went viral on social media.

The video showed contestant Torrey DeVitto picking The Fifty States category for $300.

“In ‘Field of Dreams’ a question is asked: ‘Is this heaven?’ – No, it’s that Midwestern state also known as ‘Corn State,'” read host Mayim Bialik.

DeVitto suspected Wisconsin and was shot down.

Candace Parker, a second candidate, offered Nebraska, which was also wrong.

Comedian Patton Oswalt, a third contestant, didn’t even venture a guess.

The answer, of course, is Iowa.

Here is the video of the tip that was circulated on social media:

“I get the Nebraska answer, corn and all. But, WISCONSIN?!” answered another incredulous critic.

“Wow really? Wisconsin? Nebraska? I can never take anything that comes out of the mouth of a celebrity seriously again…I just can’t.” said another critic.

“Sweet Christmas! I watch Celebrity Jeopardy and at first I thought these questions were an insult to the guests. And then they all didn’t know Field of Dreams was in Iowa, and now I’m like, wow, y’all actually dumb. And it hurts my own brain” to read another answer.

Oswalt answered to some of the rancor on Twitter, saying, “EVERYTHING is a culture war with these daffodils and it’s kinda endearing.”

He ended up in celebrity victory after being the only one to correctly answer a clue to a famous “pitchman” who was disowned by the US Navy in Final Jeopardy.
