Michael Strahan got a little carried away during Live! with Kelly and Michael on Monday during the show’s Summer Selfie Travel Trivia segment. The host accidentally gave a viewer a lavish vacation to Puerto Rico when he misheard her answer.
Strahan and his co-host Kelly Ripa asked the viewer a question about their previous guest Jeremy Renner.
“On yesterday’s show, we talked with Jeremy Renner. What sport did Jeremy say he once taught at a part-time job?” Strahan asked the caller.
With only 20 seconds to respond, the caller tried to clarify the question, but Strahan misunderstood her questioning for the correct answer.
“Sport?” the viewer asked and Strahan replied, “Bowling, you got it!”
Though it took Strahan some time to realize his mistake, Ripa and the audience caught on right away. Once Ripa clarified what had happened, Strahan’s dropped his jaw and covered his face in embarrassment.
“Well you know what funny is that some of the producers are looking at me like ‘you in trouble’ and the other ones are laughing at me,” Strahan said once he came to terms with what happened.
“This is the greatest thing that has ever happened to us!” Ripa said, after explaining that it is difficult to hear the phone calls, notes E! News.
Thankfully, the caller proved that she did know the answer and was able to keep her vacation prize.
