This is Jeopardy!

I was going to comment on this kid, but I think you've covered it well.

 

[HecticArt]

Did they say how old he is?

It sounded like he's barely even 20 or so.

At that age I knew where I could buy beer without an ID and which girls weren't impressed by it.

 

[scotchandcigar]

He's 20. Apparently, he was born during Ken Jennings' original run on Jeopardy.

 

[HecticArt]

The kid is smart.
He's got to be one of the youngest non-college contestants.

 

[scotchandcigar]

He looks like Serial Killer Sheldon.

And Kyle is STUPID!

Liam did not get the Sheldon Cooper question. Go figure.

Jeopardy player of the day



He made 2 correct guesses for the entire game, and ended with -$2,200.

 

[HecticArt]

How did he pass the try-out quiz?
How does he put his shoes on in the morning without help?

 

[scotchandcigar]

Public service announcement. Jeopardy Masters is starting right now.

 

[scotchandcigar]

From Masters game #2 last night:

"Africa Unmasked" is an exhibition at one of America's great art museums, in this Ohio city named for a European one.

 

[scotchandcigar]

In yesterday's regular game, nobody got Terry Jacks' "Seasons in the Sun" when given the lyrics, in the category "Sun Songs". That was my "yelling at the TV" moment of the night.

Ohio city named for a European one.

I'll guess Columbus?

EDIT: "What is Columbus?"

 

[scotchandcigar]

I'll guess Columbus?

EDIT: "What is Columbus?"

Sorry, no. The answer should be very easy for someone on DRC, but it's not you.

 

[Wolf]

Ohio city named for a European one.

"The Queen City"

 

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

Sorry, no. The answer should be very easy for someone on DRC, but it's not you.

Perhaps it requires some architectural knowledge.

 

[scotchandcigar]

Perhaps it requires some architectural knowledge.

But the architect is not answering. This is not going the way I expected.

 

[HecticArt]

The architect has been swamped.

It's an exhibit at the Toledo Museum of Art.

We have an extremely world-class art museum.

 

[scotchandcigar]

What a crazy game of Jeopardy. The champ flopped, but it was the guy on the right who was simultaneously brilliant and idiotic. He must've racked up $20,000, but he blew it all on tiny grammatical errors on daily doubles. The woman in the middle ended up clinching before final.

 

[HecticArt]

When he zeroed out on the DD, he started to make a great comeback but blew it again in the end. He was good, but inconsistent.

 

[Aaron]

Nobody guessed Beatles on today’s final!?! I got that one pretty easily.
