This is Jeopardy!

Yeah, the I spoiler isn’t next to the normal spoiler. It’s with the other font settings. I guess that’s why I never noticed it before.

On a different note, how weird that someone has Fiasco as a last name.

A fiasco indeed; what a crazy game! Almost a 3-way tie.

They may have set a record for wrong/unanswered questions. And the guy who won was at -$1,200 half way into double jeopardy.
 
I didn't get that joke at first...his real name was Fiscao? Sounds like they and the others didn't make for an exciting round.
 
Cooked some dinner, sat down to watch Jeopardy.. And it's locally bumped my MLB All-Star pregame coverage. Ugggh.

Got a new champion. Young guy, seems sharp. If he hadn't gotten 2 daily doubles wrong, it would've been a blowout. One contestant was negative for most of the game.
 
Woman who won tonight is from Saco, Maine; a few towns north of me.

Final Jeopardy was a joke! I got it right - Paul Simon song that was a hit in '93 (Call Me Al). First person had no answer. Next person guessed Marc Cohn's Walking in Memphis! :laugh: And then the last one guessed Me and Julio, which is from like '73. Jesus.
 
It was a pretty low-end final Jeopardy for sure.
We thought Call Me Al was older, but couldn't think of any other hits from that era, so we went with Al.
 
They post final jeopardy rounds on youtube. I now know what you guys are talking about usually missing the actual show.

And I cannot believe that any of his other hits from Graceland failed to crack the Top 40.

Exactly. I was trying to think of that father/daughter song, but that was probably too recent, and Al fit the other clues.

Mentioning that the song was a top 40 hit while mentioning the date of the inaugural ball was a little misleading, and a good way to keep the question from being too easy to guess.
 
Another Final Jeopardy fail! Once again, I knew it immediately. When Stevie Nicks got inducted into the RRHoF 3 years ago, much was made about her being the first woman inducted twice. But none of these contestants were paying attention. Two of the guesses were ridiculous (Beyonce and Gwen Stefanie), only Tina Turner was close.

Of course, if I were on Jeopardy, I'd have negative $5,000 going into final, so I wouldn't be guessing anyway.

He was too nice to them. I would have called the 2 ridiculous guessers morons.
