Final Jeopardy!

CEMETARIES & MEMORIALS - 60,000 are at rest in a National Memorial Cemetery opened in 1949 in the crater of an extinct volcano in this state

All three contestants must have overthought this FJ, because they all missed. Amy dropped $20,000 to win with $10,200 for a 33-day total of $1,111,800. Amy has now surpassed James to become the third longest-running contestant in the show's history.

Odds and Ends

That's before our time: This time it was 80s pop culture taking it on the chin, as in the category about Robert actors, no one knew "Freddy Krueger" star Robert Englund or "Airplane!" performer Robert Hays.

Ken's Korner: He noted that Amy has now been correct on over 1,000 clues. Everyone can follow her progress in this statistic with the new daily box scores on the show's website.

Correct Qs: DD1 - What is par for the course? DD2 - What is Thirty Years' War? DD3 - What is Renewable? FJ - What is Hawaii?
