So Ken Jennings POSSIBLY Loses To A Vulcan?

[THUNDER HANDS]

Is anyone watching Jeopardy right now? The woman next to Ken looks like Spock's wife. :D

[Beaverhausen]

1. so I guess tonight is the night?

not watching

[motely36]

2. lol

All the first round catagories were Seinfeld related

[THUNDER HANDS]

3. so that's how he loses

he keeps missing the Daily Doubles. He's lost about $6,000 on those alone.

[THUNDER HANDS]

4. OKAY --- FINAL JEOPARDY TIME

Ken is leading the Vulcan woman by $4400.

Both of them just passed on two easy sports questions. Where do the NY Islanders and Detroit Redwings play.

Jeez, how do you pass on those???

[Left Is Write]

5. Well, gosh. It doesn't come on here for another half hour.

I would have preferred not seeing that he lost tonight and who the winner was before the show actually aired.

[THUNDER HANDS]

6. oh I'm sorry

But really, this was kinda known a few months ago that he'd lose on the 75th game.

[Left Is Write]

8. Not to me. I've been avoiding spoilers like the plague.

I didn't mean to sound snarky, but I've avoided knowing all this time, and now watching will be somewhat of a letdown.

[THUNDER HANDS]

10. I'm sorry

its still shocking in what he guesses though. I mean, wow, he blew it big-time.

[Left Is Write]

18. I'll check back in this thread after I watch.

Then I can dish. :)

[THUNDER HANDS]

7. FINAL QUESTION IS

most of this firms seasonal white collar employees work only 4 months a year.

[TheDebbieDee]

9. What's the answer?

[THUNDER HANDS]

11. it is....

H&R Block

Ken guessed Fed Ex

[progressiveBadger]

15. Fed Ex???

What the hell? He lost on purpose!

[Phentex]

21. I thought so too.

I think he was ready. This answer was TOO easy for him to really miss.

[Scurrilous]

27. Fed Ex white collar? Seasonal?

IMHO he tanked on purpose. It was enough already.

[Left Is Write]

31. That's a possibility.

Also, he bet a large amount of money on the last daily double. If he hadn't lost that question, he would have had another gimme game.

[GOPisEvil]

13. What is

H & R Block?

[progressiveBadger]

Tax people n/t

[erpowers]

20. A Tax Firm

H&R Block is a tax preparation firm. People go to them each year to get help with their tax returns.

[Beaverhausen]

12. You should change your thread title

you are spoiling it for others in other time zones

[Patsy Stone]

14. I know he loses, because I was on his 73rd show.

Yes, I lost to KJ. There are so many of us, we need a support group.

[THUNDER HANDS]

17. you really lost to him???

that's so cool. You're like a celebrity!

[Patsy Stone]

19. Yes, it's a fact.

He couldn't have been nicer. And he was a little bit into being catty with me about Alex.

We filmed in August. The show that's airing now was filmed in early September. He missed the Final Jeopardy on my show, so he didn't get to 2.5 mil on my watch.

p.s. Sure, I couldn't have had an entire game about Seinfeld, noooo.

[Chovexani]

26. My condolences

Hehe, that is neat though. I always wanted to be on Jeopardy but I've never participated in any contestant searches or anything because even though I have a good knowledge of trivia, I know I would freeze up on TV and mess up with the buzzer.

BTW I love your handle. Cheers sweetie! :P

[Patsy Stone]

37. It was a blast.

I wasn't as nervous as I thought it would be. Sometimes when I heard the question, it didn't seem like Alex was speaking English. Luckily, you can read them easily. It's allll about the buzzer.

Sweetie, Darling, Sweetie Darling!

[Misunderestimator]

23. So that means you were on last week?

I recognized someone who was on last night... too funny.

[Patsy Stone]

24. Friday

My greatest moment was, "who is Chad Everett?"
Classic.

[CornField]

16. Sucks to be a Vulcan

Once every 7 years just ain't enough!

[mdhunter]

22. H&R Block! Moran.

[Heyo]

28. I think I know why he guessed Fed Ex...

... not that it would've been my choice.

But maybe he was thinking they hire a lot of seasonal employees for the holidays.. being a shipping company.

I mean... given this man's AMAZING record, a slip up now and then is to be forgiven, but unfortunately it happened this time in the right place at the right time to allow the Vulcan lady to win..

Oh well.. way to go, Ken, for your amazing run.. live long and prosper, homie...

:dunce:

Heyo

[mdhunter]

36. It's not a bad guess but the question specified "white collar" (nt)

[Patsy Stone]

25. Not Vulcan...Romulan :) n/t

[Heyo]

29. This is true...

... you are right.. she totally looks like that one Romulan starship commander I see sometimes on TNG...

Heyo

[Randers]

30. I thought tonight might be the night

but I wasn't online... so it was still a surprise.


H&R Block :shrug: seems like it should have taken a more difficult question... but who knows...

[ridgerunner]

32. I think he threw it

He seemed like he was ready to go. When he missed the daily double about Bastogne that threw up a red flag.

[DemoTex]

33. Adios Ken. Enjoy your $2.5 million.

You are one smart dude. Quick thumb helps. Just don't blow your winnings on your cult.

[Ekirh]

34. If I remember....

He's giving them 10 percent right?

Me thinks Ken isn't the only one coming out Happy about his winnings.

[DemoTex]

35. Ah, yes. Tithing.

The cult is marginally richer.
