Erin should have stayed at home.
Tough Final; Comet Kohoutek was all I could muster.
The Studebaker/Rockne DD wasn’t that difficult. Thought someone might know the pop singer who adores Joni Mitchell.
Housekeeping: the “More clues on page 2” link didn’t work. And the Presidential Nicknames stumper’s $ value is showing as $000. (Which is also the dollar value I’d assign to that president.)
That’s odd — Jason said it didn’t work, then he said it did.
That president stumper was a top row clue in Double Jeopardy, where the easy clues are supposed to be. I never heard of that president being called that. I guess they apply that to any president or anybody who is perceived as getting away with something. I even saw a book cover calling Clinton Teflon Bill.
Wow – Erin just looked unprepared.
Once again, Drew forgot his phrasing. Really not impressive.
I was 3/3 on DD and, but missed Final.
Wow, Erin must have broke an all time Jeopardy record with $7,200 in the red, but I could sure see myself in that situation. Anyways, I was frantically trying to come up with the correct response for FJ. I mean, what was that celestial body which was discovered in 1978? Well, I simply drew a blank, but I was quite familiar with Charon. Incidentally, Pluto is not a dwarf planet at all, but a fully fledged planet.
So Erin is the latest Jeopardy contestant to get dismissed before Final J! as not much went her way and congrats to Drew on winning the game once again.
Tough final as we got a double stumper and Erin did much worse than Priscilla from the January 16, 2020 episode.
I feel bad for Erin, the opening round went fine for her but in DJ! she had to take a lot of swings to get out of the red to try to catch up but she kept digging the hole deeper and deeper. She ended up at -$7,200 which is I believe the lowest negative score ever in the history of Jeopardy! Erin was the most unluckiest player in the show’s history.
She had to keep swinging, because she was flirting negative amounts, and things just didn’t work out for her, but in actuality, it’s not the record. It’s close. In Matt Amodio’s 4th game, Patrick Pearce finished with -$7,400, which is the current record.
Yeah, I linked to the pre-FJ scores for July 2021 — Patrick was at the middle podium, too. Maybe that’s a planetary coincidence — the middle podium planets were not aligned
My wife used to say the middle podium was cursed, and that was before I was placed there.
I believe that the lowest negative score in Jeopardy! history was on 7-26-21, a couple hundred more than Erin’s score
I didn’t read your post beforehand so Erin apparently didn’t break the Jeopardy record for the lowest negative score.
VJ, Tonight’s show debunks my stay-at-home parent theory. Good thing I didn’t predict. Yikes! 🤔
