Alex Trebek’s “no pants” episode of Jeopardy! is a classic. It happened when trivia champs Ken Jennings, Brad Rutter, and Jerome Vered were all on the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions in 2005. Jennings and Rutter told Mashable that the three men were joking around backstage about all taking off their pants behind the podiums to relieve the tension of the competition — you can’t be scared of a guy with his pants off, right?

The guys joked about it, but eventually went out with pants on. Poor, earnest Trebek had heard them joking on their mics. “He thought it would be funny if he just took off his pants and walked out in boxers, and it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen. I didn’t know I wanted to see it so much until I did,” Jennings explained.

Trebek asked the cameras to confirm if the contestants were also sans pants — they weren’t. Trebek then just turned around, went backstage, and put his pants on for the remainder of the show. What a dude, right?
