Final Jeopardy! category: ANCIENT HISTORY

Final Jeopardy! clue: Pantities, sent to recruit troops, & Aristodemus, sent off to treat his eye disease, were the only known Greeks to survive this event

What is the Battle of Thermopylae?


Demi 3200 + 3200 = 6400 Fred 10000 + 6000 = 16000 Kyle 10400 – 10000 = 400 (Vesuvius)

This was a Final Jeopardy where I was excited to actually come up with the correct response! Might have been easier for me had I watched 300…

Meanwhile, again, we get stuck at a 3-time champion! Will Fred learn wagering before Monday’s episode?
