Judge talked about all things baseball and the Yankees, and advice he has received from previous players. But before asking all his questions, Fallon asked the outfielder to join him for a funny game of Blow Your Mind. The players have to guess the truth of outstanding facts about the world as they sit in front of a tube-shaped instrument. And the 30-year-old seemed to enjoy the game with Fallon, amusing the crowd.

Aaron Judge gets sprayed by ridiculous items for a game

As Questlove from the in-house band explained, contestants have to guess the truth of the fact presented to them. If they guess correctly, the tube in front of them blasts the other player with an item. Judge and Fallon sat down opposite each other, both wearing bright wigs – green for Fallon and red for Judge. As Questlove proceeded to ask questions, things like baby socks and a pom-pom were thrown in Judge’s face.

The two players started the game by spritzing water on their faces as they got ready to be blasted by the tube. The game ended with a twist, where both players were asked a question together. If they got it wrong, each player would get something thrown in their faces. And, as expected, each answered the question, “Is water wet?” wrong, and the tube blew out colorful confetti.
