Some even thought it was one of the host’s practical jokes, noticing the similarities between Damon and the accountant.
“People started speculating 'Did you pull a prank of some kind?' And I was, ‘Hey, no, I didn't. I did not pull a prank. If I pulled a prank, I just wouldn't have had the wrong winner's name on the envelope. When they opened the envelope, there would have been a Bed Bath and Beyond coupon. It was not a prank,” he said.
