Contender 980116 is a Whatnot interviewed by Louis Kazagger in the "Muppet Sports" sketch on episode 319 of The Muppet Show.

The Muppet marksman claims he won't need luck to win the All Nation Goldfish Shooting Contest. His unwavering belief is that his target won't have a chance. When the moment of truth comes, however, Contender 980116 aims his shotgun directly into the fishbowl but misses the goldfish entirely, showing that shooting fish in a barrel isn't quite as easy as the adage suggests.
