moments where game show contestants embarrassed themselves or did something they probably weren't intending to do which led to unexpected results regardless of whether they won or not number 10 what does urban mean the newlywed game Kathy I don't know what they mean we don't know the origins of the dumb blonde stereotype but this contestant certainly fits the bill when asked if her new husband was more urban or rural Kathy looked completely dazed before admitting she was unsure what either term meant heck he's urban deserving she decided that her husband was urban and to the delight of both the host and the audience answered several questions about her husband's urban problem that required the attention of a doctor never not fastest finger fail Who Wants to Be a Millionaire any of our contestants have got that wrong don't let them give you a lift home before you're given the chance to win a million dollars you first have to win the fastest finger round at least that's how it's supposed to work things didn't quite go according to plan in this episode of millionaire however when none of the ten contestants was able to put the traffic light sequence in order according to the British Highway Code all these rewrites M&E host Chris Tarrant even stressed that this was common knowledge that everyone should have known right before he realized much to his amusement that none of the contestants had actually answered the question correctly number eight immoral pleasure-seeker jeopardy Roman numeral 1604 the pilot who was times first man of the year ken what is 150 yes for Charles Lindbergh Ken Jennings is arguably the greatest game show contestant in history and is best known for his winning streak on Jeopardy where he won 74 straight times 29,000 is what to get today and it brings your total to route to another easy victory Jennings was given a question asking for a term that referred to both a gardening tool and an immoral pleasure-seeker Ken what's a hoe no Jennings confidently but incorrectly answered with the term hoe which caused host Alex Trebek to hilariously question his education teach you that in school in Utah huh al what's a rake a rake is right the correct term was actually rake tool Oh double jeopardy number seven your ding-a-ling family feud the fast money round of family feud has given us some classic responses as people say the very first thing that pops into their heads in an effort to get through all of the questions in time name a place on your body that a doctor might look in with the little flashlight but host Steve Harvey was only able to ask one question however before he was rendered speechless by the contestants response when asked what men would say is a part of their body that's bigger than it was when they were 16 this contestant immediately responded with your penis Harvey's reaction might even be better than the actual response I said the medical terminology I'll get what you say kengo-san right number six first question wrong Who Wants to Be a Millionaire this is it loving you Minnesota what a great name do people know when you say it they don't believe you were there have been plenty of contestants on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire who have made fools of themselves such as the one who thought the classic Denny's breakfast was named a slam dunk a slam dunk the final answer slim but this one tops them all contestant lovey you seemed ready to play that is until she was given the first question she does with the owl Paris Hilton he erroneously locked in owl when asked which animal used an ink sack for protection from predators before immediately realizing that the correct answer was actually squid number five ten chances fail The Price is Right he has done nothing nothing talk about an easy victory this entry has less to do with the contestant and more to do with the gameshow organizers in the price of that shredder there are two numbers using Daniel has just won a shredder in this game the contestant is given ten chances to guess the prices of three prizes normally they're shown three digits and have to use two for the first prize then they're shown four digits and have to use three for the second prize and then they're shown five digits and need to use all of them for the car Daniel how do you like the way this game is going for Daniel but to the annoyance of Bob Barker the prices were already on the board before he even had to guess because the man who usually sets his self is not with us today his wife is having a baby number four snake charmer catchphrase 290 Pines what do you think it is who would have thought the occupation of charming snakes could look so so wrong as the boxes disappear from the screen during this episode of catchphrase we see an animated banana in a suit and top hat appearing to be enjoying himself a little too much five seconds here we go the contestants host and audience can barely keep it together as they try to continue the game things get out of control when we see that there is also a snake involved good luck getting that image out of your head number three an animal with three letters in its name family feud something that comes with a summer storm snow back to the family feud fast money round they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and this father-son duo certainly proves that claim when asked to name an animal with three letters in its name Bob answers with frog when asked the exact same question Bob's father who is also named Bob answers with alligator prompting host richard dawson to ask if he uses narcotics the pair's somehow managed to win four hundred and fifteen dollars despite younger bob thinking that snow comes with a summer storm please watch us tomorrow and see if he has the nerve to show up again number two Kellie Pickler are you smarter than a 5th grader in my red kellie pickler debut albums small-town girls sold close to 900,000 copies that's less than 5% of the number

when asked to named the European country of which Budapest is the capital city Pickler exclaimed that she thought Europe was a country Budapest and Aran heard of that she tosses the idea of France around in her mind because they speak French there but is also unsure of whether or not France is a country satellite France is a country I will tell you that thank goodness she had an elementary
