Final Jeopardy!
SCIENCE FICTION - Referring to what’s wrongly believed to be a meteorite, “The Falling Star” is the title of Chapter 2 of this 1898 novel
Only Geoff was correct on FJ, adding $2,200 to win with $6,400 for a three-day total of $44,801. Note that Geoff sized his wager so that even if he missed, he still would have won by $1.
Final scores: Geoff $6,400, Kyle $1,999, Abbi -$400.
Rough game dept.: The one-minute warning in DJ game with nine clues remaining, and the round ended with four leftovers.
