    Smart group tonight, but 2nd round was kind of erratic. The guys were super-quick on the buzzer, but Eleanor hung in there and was a contender at the end. Andie’s right thumb quivered the entire show except during the DD.

    A wee bit surprised no one knew the Canadian city across from Detroit. As far as I know, it’s the only place where Canada is south of the US. And there are now 3 confirmed people who have never seen that famous clip of Harold Lloyd dangling.

    Vacillated between RI and Delaware for FJ and went with the latter. Thought it might have been that first state in the Union. Most winners do nothing more than crack a smile. Tonight was the rare exception.

      There’s a lot (relatively speaking) of the mainland US that is north of Canada. It’s because of how Ontario goes south of the, what is it, 49th parallel?

      I went with Delaware, also.

      I also chuckled at Yungsheng when he was rather dramatic at an earlier clue. As said, it’s refreshing when someone shows their happiness, instead of appearing restrained. I hope he has the chops for a long run.

    Thanks for the recap, since FJ was pre-empted in my area.

  3. Collin says:

    Yungsheng got the daily double and final Jeopardy correctly to get a new champion.

    I loved Yungsheng Wang’s reaction to winning with $22,800.
