Caught only the last few minutes. My utter lack of “Star Wars” trivia knowledge did me in. I feebly said “the guy from Apocalypse now” (Kurtz, whose name I momentarily forgot). Knew the last DD. Got half of the middle one and should have nailed the first–I took a class in it in college.
The country star/chicken man was ez. One of his restaurants opened here and disappeared quickly. Knew the CEF stumper; we collected for it as kids on Halloween. Thought someone might know the hunger organization. Well-acquainted with the Jewish women’s org but that was a toughie. I liked the Potpourri category, if only because I knew all of them.
It was another fantastic game, and Harrison remained as the Jeopardy champion. Well, I performed slightly below average in the game, and flubbed the FJ (as I really couldn’t come up with anything based on the clues).
Did anyone else notice or think that Harrison’s accent went away today? Sounded like he had a typical American accent today.
I wished they had Flaming Ember’s Westbound #9 song in the County Line category (“Sittin’ on the bank of Holy Creek down by the county line”) but it was just as well. If they didn’t know the Gambler they sure as hell wouldn’t have known that one!
Now that you mentioned it VJ, I could hardly believe that none of the contestants recognized the Gambler.
Harrison is the first player this season to cross the 200,000 in winnings and he is now the biggest money winner of Season 42.
