Jeopardy! champion Tristan Williams is reaching for the sky and more wins. The five-time winner has fans buzzing because they think he looks like a popular movie character.
So far, the data scientist has won five games and $103, 499. As he goes for win number six, fans can’t help but compare him to Woody the cowboy from Toy Story.
The brunette champion from Lincoln, Nebraska, is just missing a cowboy hat. Woody is known for his shiny head, yellow plaid shirts, jeans, and always being there for his friends. Maybe Williams will dress as the cowboy in an upcoming episode if his streak continues. Some fans think he has the same hairline.
Toy Story 5 is set to hit theaters on June 19, which will see the return of Woody after he left the group in the fourth movie to help out Bo Peep track down missing toys. So, Woody may be on the brain for many Disney fans.
“Do you actually see Woody from Toy Story in Tristan??” a Facebook user wrote.
“Now that you mentioned it?? YES!! I really like him! His facial expressions are very honest during his DD’s!” another replied.
“Omg yes!!! My husband mentioned it first, and now I can’t unsee it! And I love Tristan,” a fan commented.

“Oh my goodness!! My first thought when they introduced him!!! I keep thinking that he’s going to come out wearing a cowboy hat!” a Facebook user added.
“It’s the hairline in the front I can’t stop looking at…” one fan pointed out.
“From the first minute, I thought the same thing,” a fan said.
“Yes. His hair looks like it’s painted on like Woody, but I love him,” another said.
“OMG – I’ve been saying this since his first game. We love watching and are enjoying this player – but he gave me Woody vibes before the first commercial break!” a fan in another group said.
“I’ve been wondering every day what cartoon character he reminded me of. Thank you for figuring it out!!” another said.
“Wow, there sure is a resemblance,” one last fan said.
Some fans said they see Fred Savage, who is an actor best known for being on The Wonder Years.
Hopefully, it will be a while before we have to say “so long, partner” to Williams. Do you think Tristan Williams looks like someone else? If you don’t agree with the above picks, what’s yours? Let us know in the comments.
