TV Game Show Contestant

The Resume

    (1976- )
    First contestant to lose on the first question on 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire?'

Why he might be annoying:

    He blew the $100 question without using a lifeline He answered 'Blackbird' instead of 'Plum' when asked 'According to the nursery rhyme, what did Little Jack Horner pull from a pie?'
    The day after the show aired 'Inside Edition' polled several six-year olds about the question, all of them answered correctly.
    The Millionaire show brought back 10 contestants who walked away with nothing, Fodera again got into the hot seat and needed the audience's help for the $1,000 question: 'A duet where both players share the same musical instrument is often played on a . . . clarinet, violin, piano or guitar.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He got his fastest finger question correct.
    He got a total of $50 expense money.
    His mistake garnered several public appearances, including the Rosie O'Donnell Show.
    Rosie's show gave him a new car and a trip to the Caribbean.
    He remained a good sport about his mistake.
