    It would have been hilarious if somebody wrote PRINCE HARRY for the Final.

    History/monarchies not my thing. I gave the Dutch William a brief thought but went with the Conqueror instead.

    Those stumpers were all brain-crushers, except maybe “The Lost Symbol” one.

    Ouch–Nick was 35 years too late with Secretariat. I was down near the rail at Belmont in 1973 when Big Red won the Triple Crown by 31 lengths. And the longshot in the 5-horse field barely nosed out another for 2nd place at the wire, costing me a winning $2 exacta bet. Earlier, I lost 2 bucks on Secretariat when he was upset by a horse named Onion. During the post parade before that race, I had a sneaking suspicion that Onion would make me cry!

    A tough FJ, and I never heard of William The Orange until now.

  4. Ismael Gomez says:

    Just like how we begin the week, we end the week with another triple stumper as we got a tough final.

  5. VJ says:

    Two clues in this game were recently seen on Master Minds —

    1. the kind of bananas that are cooked; and

    2. a variation of the Official National Languages Daily Double (they wanted the “R” language in the last round)

    • JP says:

      I definitely noticed the “R” language for this reason. Coincidence?

      • Jacob ska says:

        If I’m not mistaken Sony owns Game Show Network too. Probably some sharing of writers or a clue bank between Master Minds and Jeopardy. Just a thought.
