Jeopardy!
U.S. GEOGRAPHY // VIRAL FOOD // 2 "B" // DEAR MR. SCI FI OR FANTASY // PLAY US A TUNE // SOMETHING TO MAKE US ALL HAPPY
DD1 - $1,000 - 2 "B" - The first issue of this magazine in 1894 was focused on advertising; music came later (Jamie lost $1,000.)
Scores at first break: Jamie $5,600, Thayer $1,600, T -$200.
Scores entering DJ: Jamie $8,000, Thayer $2,400, T $2,400.
Double Jeopardy!
HISTORIC WOMEN // BIBLICAL FIRST NAMES // CO-STARS // QUITE SOME FEET // THAT'S A RED FLAG // DON'T COST MUCH
DD2 - $1,600 - QUITE SOME FEET - It doesn't take a genius to figure out how Sula Nebouxii, the blue-footed this seabird, got its familiar name (Thayer added $3,000 to his score of $6,400 vs. $11,600 for Jamie.)
DD3 - $1,200 - HISTORIC WOMEN - A 2025 doc about her includes her exploits in space & the life partner she was never able to acknowledge (Jamie improved by $5,200 up to $24,000 vs. $12,200 for Thayer.)
Thayer left some money on the table by not going all-in on DD2, but he finished just well enough to keep the game alive into FJ at $13,400 vs. $25,200 for Jamie and $7,200 for T.
Final Jeopardy!
WRITERS ON WRITERS - Jane Austen called this English poet "infallible"
Everyone was incorrect on FJ. Jamie dropped $1,601 to win with $23,599 for a nine-day total of $245,802.
Final scores: Jamie $23,599, Thayer $0, T $0.
That's before their time: No one knew the Bette Davis and Joan Crawford movie that inspired a season of TV's "Feud", "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?"
Correct Qs: DD1 - What is Billboard? DD2 - What is booby? DD3 - Who was Ride? FJ - Who was Pope?
