Steve Harvey Threatens Contestant on Family Feud
Steve Harvey, known for his quick wit and hilarious reactions on Family Feud, recently brought the funny – and a little bit of playful intimidation – to a Fast Money round. The Heuisler family, already $20,000 richer from the main game, had a shot at doubling their winnings, but things went sideways during the rapid-fire bonus round.
Fast Money challenges two family members to answer five survey questions, aiming for a combined 200 points. First up was Katy, who navigated the 20-second timer fairly well, but stumbled on the question, “Name a specific food that’s better fresh than canned.”
Her initial answer? “Fruit.”
While seemingly logical, the show requires specific examples. After the remaining questions, Harvey returned to the vague response, prompting Katy to offer “Peaches,” earning a meager six points.
Her final score of 68 left teammate Tim with a lot of ground to cover.
Tim, facing the same question, also initially answered “Fruit,” then switched to “Vegetable” after learning Katy’s response. A bewildered Harvey questioned him, leading to a hilarious exchange:
Tim: “Did you say fruit or food?”
Harvey (incredulously): “If you say the same thing… I’mma hit you upside your head!”
Tim finally landed on “Pineapple,” but unfortunately, the tropical fruit earned him zero points, as did another answer. While the Heuislers missed out on the extra $20,000, their combined correct answers netted them $570, bringing their total to a respectable $20,570 – a win worth celebrating, even without the Fast Money bonus.
