Over the past few years, we"ve shared the the occasional game show flub here or there.
There was THIS catastrophic Wheel of Fortunate guess, for instance, as well as THIS mind-numbing attempt to solve a puzzle.
But nothing, and we mean nothing, compares to the snafu made on-air by Evan Kaufman during a round of $ 100,000 Pyramid.
Kaufman was competing with ex-Saturday Night Live cast member Tim Meadows on the game show hosted by Michael Strahan.
He was given perhaps the simplest clue anyone could possibly be given, having to simply list to Meadows "People with the last name Obama" in order to the actor to guess that the answer was…
People with the Last Name Obama.
But instead of naming Barack or Michelle or Sasha or Malia (heck, even Bo Obama, dude) after a very pregnant pause, he said, "Bin Laden."
Yes, BIN LADEN.
To Kaufman"s credit, he didn"t make any excuses or conjure up any tales over why he made such a grave mistake.
Heck, he even admitted there was some "racism" tucked deep inside his head. How else to explain such a mix-up?
"This just goes to show you that even a liberal Globalist Cuck like yours truly has some inherent racism lurking in my brain. What a disaster," Tweeted Kaufman as one of 13 messages he posted online after the slip-up went viral.
"What you don’t see in this clip is me, shocked, correcting myself and saying Barack," he adds, continuing;
"Tim gets the answer. We get stumped on Margarita a few questions later. Turns out Margarita is Tim Meadow’s Grandmother’s name."
Concludes a humilated Kaufman:
Tim feels bad he lost the money for me, because he"s sweet. Kathy Najimy can"t look me in the eye. I leave knowing that my day of reckoning is coming. Maybe they can cut it out? They can"t… it"s timed.
I leave with $ 8500… and the story of the worst pyramid guess of all-time.
Watch this amazing/horrifying clip now. It"s remarkable.
