‘Jeopardy!’ Fans Are Shocked by Ken Jennings’ Odd Food Choice at Baseball Game
What is…. that? Jeopardy! fans reacted to Ken Jennings‘ odd baseball game food choice.
“We were at the Doosan Bears’ final regular-season game ever at Jamsil Baseball Stadium this week. It’s been so long since I saw a KBO game that they were still the OB Bears last time I saw them play,” Jennings captioned the Instagram post on October 14. “Very sad to see Jamsil close and the Bears lose, but we did learn a lot of elaborate cheers.”
He didn’t share who he went to the game with, but it was most likely his wife or one of his kids. Jennings has attended baseball games in the past with his son, Dylan. The photo only featured a selfie of him sitting in the stands of the stadium. The next photo was of the Bears mascot, who took pictures with excited fans.

However, this time, he attended a game overseas. During his trip to South Korea, Jennings visited the stadium, which is set to be demolished this winter. He also visited his childhood home while there, as well as other popular landmarks, libraries, and more.
But it was the final photo that caught fans’ attention. “And tried out my new go-to stadium food: pig’s feet and sweet potato sticks,” Jennings ended his caption.
The last photo showed off the food, which rested on a nice blue table in front of him as he watched the game. In other photos, fans appeared to have big plates and bowls of food that didn’t look like typical baseball stadium food. Usually, in America, the stadium food includes hot dogs, chicken tenders, fries, soft pretzels, nachos, burgers, beer, soft drinks, and more.
The game show host decided to opt for the unique choice of pig feet and sweet potato sticks. He might be used to that food, as he grew up there, but fans were not.
“Sweet potato sticks – yes. Pigs’ feet – hard pass,” one commented. “I’m not adventurous enough.”
“Pig’s feet, Ken? WOW!” another fan said.
“The food option at KBO stadiums is on another level for sho!!” a third added.
“I’m having a hard time liking this when I think about that snack,” a disgusted fan said.
However, some fans commented “yumm” while others said, “don’t knock it until you try it.”
