Damn. Seeing Alex Trebek choke up during an episode of Jeopardy hit me right in the heart, man.
If you're not aware, the 79-year-old Trebek has been battling stage IV pancreatic cancer for months. In September he announced he was set to undergo another round of chemotherapy, but has vowed to continue to work as long as he can.
Here's hoping he's around for years.
