'That's a clown question, bro' was a Jeopardy category
Last June 13, we knew Nationals rookie Bryce Harper came through with a classic quote when he told a reporter, 'That's a clown question, bro.' Little did we know just how big that quip would become. The reach has now extended past the sporting world, because 'That's a Clown Question, Bro' was a category on 'Jeopardy!' Friday night. Seriously.

Back on June 13, we knew Nationals rookie Bryce Harper came through with a classic quote when he told a reporter, "That's a clown question, bro." Little did we know just how big that quip would become. The reach has now extended past the sporting world, because "That's a Clown Question, Bro" was a category on Jeopardy! Friday night. Seriously.
CATEGORY: THAT'S A CLOWN QUESTION, BRO. CLUE: Tim Curry described this character as "a smile gone bad" #jeopardy

That moment probably ranks right up there with being my pick for "biggest character" in 2012, right?
On a serious note, it's amazing the legs this quote has, which is definitely a testament to the power of social media and the Internet as a whole.
