'Family Feud' answer gone wrong: 'Name something that has to be licked'

Gene, Gene, Gene...

On Monday night's edition of "Family Feud," the fourth guy from the left, Gene Steurk, brought the house down with his answer to the question:

"Name something that has to be licked."

Now Gene didn't have the no-brainers available to him, as "Ice cream cone" and "Lollipop" had already been chosen by his family members.

But being fourth guy from the left, Gene was obviously not the relative with whom the family felt a ton of confidence. The top players are always in slots 1-3.

That lack of confidence turned out to be well-founded.
