Family Feud Fraud
Share
In a move sparred by complete boredom, Patrick Spradow, proud college dropout, decided to do some research surrounding one very famous television show, Family Feud. Jonathan spent the summer of 2023 wandering the streets of Hollywood, Malibu, Santa Monica, San Diego, Long Beach, and Fresno. His goal was to find one, just ONE of the 100 men or women surveyed by anyone from the show Family Feud.
Three months, hundreds of miles walked, countless public bathrooms used, and more burritos than anyone cared to count, Jonathan came up empty. There ARE NO 100 MEN AND WOMEN THAT WERE SURVEYED. NONE.
Jonathan wasn’t satisfied. He wasn’t a quitter, so he wanted to try one more technique. He tried calling one hundred people and just ask them random questions. Ninety-four people ignored his call, three told him to fuck off, and three people were just as bored as Jonathan, so they asked him what HE would answer to the question, “What would you do if a complete stranger called you and asked for your opinion on a topic that didn’t matter?”
“I’d probably tell them to take a hike,” Jonathan said.
“Exactly,’ the last people huffed as they hung up.
Family Feud has been making up numbers for years! The beneficiaries? Richard Dawson and Steve Harvey. Those sons-of-bitches!
