And to think, this all happened by mistake. Originally, Jeopardy called his girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn, to do it and she turned them down.
“She was like, ‘I don’t really want to this,'” Rodgers told ESPN. “I was like, ‘I will do that! Tell your people I will do it!'”
Now for those that do not know, the MACC Fund attempts “to find a cure for childhood cancer and related blood disorders by providing critical funding for research.” So needless to say, Rodgers got to complete one of his dreams while helping a noteworthy organization.
