Jeopardy contestant says he'd spend winnings on Taco Bell, gets best response

April 24, 2018

We're all guilty of spending way too much money at Taco Bell, and honestly, who can blame us?

It's affordable, and it's pretty delicious, so we don't mind spending a few dollars here and there, but this Jeopardy contestant decided that if he won the big prize, he would spend a little more at the fast food chain than the average person.

On a recent college edition episode of Jeopardy, Georgia Tech freshman, Rishab Jain, told host Alex Trebek that if he won the $100,000 prize, he would put the money to good use by spending it all on a lifetime supply of Taco Bell.

While Jain didn't make it to the big prize, that doesn't mean he went home empty handed. Per a report from People, Taco Bell saw the moment, and the company will be sending him $500 in gift cards. They also tweeted Jain, saying: “College can feel like a lifetime. We’ll help you get through it, Rishab.”

Honestly, goals.

While Jain didn't win the $100,000 prize, he can at least get himself a nice little supply of Taco Bell Mexican pizzas and Crunchwrap supremes to get him through college.
