Lucky 13 is a game show where contestants answer 13 true or false questions.

The show is produced by Kevin Bacon and airs Thursdays on ABC at 9 p.m.

It airs the next day on Hulu.

If the player can accurately guess how many questions they got right, they will take home $1 million.

If they don’t get it right, they take home a smaller amount of money, ranging from US$5,000 to US$100.00.

The first episode of the program aired on July 18th and fans have already noticed an error in one of the questions.

BARRETT’S GAME

Barrett Chesley was the first person to play.

He is a dentist from Chicago, Illinois.

The player answered 13 questions with great confidence.

But as the questions continued, Barrett began to question his confidence.

He got to the seventh question, which said: “Cinco de Mayo is Mexican Independence Day.”

“I work with a lot of Mexican women and they would kill me if I got it wrong,” Barrett said.

“It’s not Mexican Independence Day. It’s fake.”

He had the opportunity to change his answers when he was finished, but he didn’t change any of them.

Barrett chose the option of going 7-9, which would have earned him $25,000.

He ended up losing because he overshot his range and got 10 right.

Mexican Independence Day is celebrated on September 16th.

‘THIS IS NOT RIGHT!’

The show promoted the first episode on its Instagram page and fans immediately pointed out that Mexico’s question was wrong in the publish.

“It’s not Mexican Independence Day. Thanks for holding me back!” one fan wrote.

“Just to clarify, Cinco de Mayo is NOT Mexican Independence. It’s September 16th. I just want to make sure this is the correct answer,” said another.

“I came to say the same thing. He was robbed,” responded another fan.

“This guy lost, but why does he say Cinco de Mayo isn’t Mexican Independence Day?” another asked.

“His show literally said yes. It should have been fake and he should have won.”

Barrett Chesley answered the question about Cinco De Mayo being Mexican Independence Day as false, but it cost him the game
