Jeopardy! contestant flips the 'bird' during game

As seen below, Stanford University junior Viraj Mehta showed off his extended middle finger while describing, of all things, how he eats pizza.

Incredibly, censors failed to notice the so-called obscene gesture and it aired in its full plumage all over the country.

Mehta is competing in this week's Jeopardy! College Championship.

Despite no categories based on avian knowledge, Mehta went on to win Monday's game to advance further in the tournament.
