Today’s contestants:
Ethan Culbreth, an orchid specialist from Hollywood, CA
Al Arsenault, a computer security engineer from Ellicott City, MD
Ken Jennings, a software engineer from Salt Lake City, UT (7-day total: $231,000)
Back when contestants had a little bit more leeway in terms of their Hometown Howdies, Ethan picked the following for his:
Hey, Hollywood, California. This is Ethan Culbreth. I don’t have a shot in hell against this guy. So watch me get my butt kicked–tonight on Jeopardy!
J! round categories: ’60s POTPOURRI; COLLEGE BASKETBALL; FOR THE KID IN YOU; MEDICAL ABBREV.; CULINARY QUOTES; “TOUCH” ME
Al went 4/5 in COLLEGE BASKETBALL. However, among Ken’s 21 correct in this round included running CULINARY QUOTES and going 4/5 in ’60s POTPOURRI, FOR THE KID IN YOU, MEDICAL ABBREV., and 3/5 in “TOUCH” ME. Ethan, obviously having difficulty with the signaling device, went “oh my!” after the first time he got in — on clue 19.
After 30 clues, the scores were:
Ken $12,800
Al $5,000
Ethan $600
DJ! round categories: AFRICAN-AMERICAN PLAYWRIGHTS; LEADING MEN; SEATTLE’S SISTER CITIES; PUMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE; ART “C”; FIX THE SIMILE
On this half of the show, Ken ran FIX THE SIMILE, went 4/5 in ART “C” and 3/5 in AFRICAN-AMERICAN PLAYWRIGHTS, LEADING MEN, and SEATTLE’S SISTER CITIES. Ken got all 3 Daily Doubles today, and the outcome never really felt in doubt.
Ethan was right. He ended up with 4 correct responses on the day.
Scores going into Final Jeopardy:
Ken $38,600
Al $11,800
Ethan $1,000
Final Jeopardy! category: UNITED NATIONS HISTORY
Final Jeopardy! clue: In 1960 this new national leader made the longest speech in United Nations history, 4 hours & 29 minutes
Who is Fidel Castro?
Ethan 1000 – 0 = 1000 (Who is U Thant?)
Al 11800 + 8200 = 20000
Ken 38600 – 3442 = 35158 (Who is Khruschev?) (8-day total: $266,158)
