						<p>What is &#8220;Cursing like a sailor&#8221;?</p>
<p>Since the death of beloved &#8220;Jeopardy!&#8221; host <strong>Alex Trebek on Sunday</strong>, tributes and memories have poured in — including a supercut of potty-mouthed outtakes from promotional spots that Trebek shot for a telephone version of the game show.</p>
<p>&#8220;No host likes shooting promos, especially for a phone version of their hit game show, but Trebek did them with good humor. So long, Alex, and f - - k &#8217;em,&#8221; the Found Footage Festival captioned the 29-second resurfaced clip, posted Monday, of Trebek cursing a blue streak with a corded landline phone in his hand. <a href="https://twitter.com/foundfootage/status/1325864708809904134" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The tweet</a> has gone viral, racking up more than 4.6 million views as of Friday morning.</p>
<p>&#8220;So keep watching &#8216;Jeopardy!&#8217; 24 hours a day and call this number . . . You dumb son of a bitch, you don&#8217;t watch it 24 hours a day,&#8221; a stone-faced Trebek — who was 80 when he died — says at the start of the clip.</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a daily cash prize of $1,000 and f - - k,&#8221; he says later, with barely any pause before cursing again and walking off.</p>

<p>The comments are full of fans reacting with delight and mild surprise.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is literally the first time I&#8217;ve heard him swear and it&#8217;s so pure,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/AmethystLeslie/status/1325905057779507210" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">commented one viewer</a>. &#8220;And also strange.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh my. I&#8217;ll have to make sure my mother has a fainting couch handy before sending her this,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/HMStiller/status/1326008116081815558" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">responded another</a>.</p>
<p>The Found Footage Festival, formed in 2004, showcases videos unearthed at &#8220;garage sales and thrift stores and in warehouses and dumpsters across the country,&#8221; according to <strong>its website</strong>.</p>
<p>Other vintage shots of Trebek have also surfaced since his passing, including pictures of the <strong>1970s mustache and perm</strong> that landed him the iconic game show gig.</p>
<p>This Saturday, the Game Show Network will honor the Canadian native with a <strong>six-hour marathon</strong>. “Join us as we celebrate Alex Trebek and his legacy,” the channel wrote Tuesday in a tweet about the tribute. “He was truly in a category of his own.”</p>
