Season 26 player (2009-11-17).
Name pronounced like "ROB SEE-ver-sun".
Røb wore a clashing ensemble of green jacket, blue slacks, yellow shirt, and red tie for his appearance, prompting contestant coordinator Maggie Speak to tease him, "Do you have a more colorful outfit you could wear on the show, then?" in a behind-the-scenes segment produced for Nightline aired 2009-10-30, and for Alex Trebek to remark to co-challenger Magdalen Powers, "obviously, you and I did not get the memo that today's program would be televised in color, not black-and-white" in his opening remarks during Røb's game.
Røb's name appeared with the Scandinavian letter ø in it both as printed on-screen during his introduction, and as he wrote it on his podium. |
