I'll Have "Fleeing Facial Hair" for $800, Alex

Posted Apr 2nd 2008 8:31AM by TMZ Staff

Finally a question more challenging than a Daily Double -- what the hell happened to Alex Trebek's mustache?!


He was sportin' the 'stache for the first half of "Jeopardy" last night ... and then it mysteriously vanished.

5. I heard the audience giggle quietly...it sure looked fake. I assumed it was an April Fool's prank and he took it off during the commercial. Don't you know TMZ???

7. Thankfully I am NOT losing my mind...I heard the audience quietly giggling but didn't realize about what until I realized his moustache was missing.....and then he never said anything about it - I firgured maybe at the end of the show, but no dice.

9. My 9 year old daughter noticed . . . I didn't! On Wheel of Furtune just before Jeopardy, Pat Sajack took a wig off and showed a bald head . . .

10. I thought Pat SaJac getting his hair yanked off by Vanna White was way better. Is he really bald? I am so naive.

13. It was ON that show (in the middle) and did not notice the stache till someone mentioned it (guess I was more concerned with looking at the clues!) The show was taped in December, so I do give Trebek credit for foresight.

14. It must be nice to only have game shows be at the top of your list of worries.

15. actually "think again" it is ALEX Trebek. Next time you should double check before you correct people.
