Correct response: What is the raising of the flag on Iwo Jima?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
The United States Postal Service originally rejected the idea of a stamp commemmorating the flag raising at Iwo Jima in 1945, because “no living person(s) can appear on a US stamp”. However, the USPS relented to public and Congressional pressure, and the stamp was released in July of that year. Over 137 million of the three-cent stamps were sold.

Since Alex Trebek’s diagnosis of stage 4 pancreatic cancer, many community members have been raising money. The Jeopardy! Fan Online Store is as well! All proceeds from any “Keep The Faith And We’ll Win” shirt sold will be donated to Alex Trebek’s preferred charity. (The de facto alumni association is currently inquiring with the show in order to determine Alex Trebek’s preferred charity; this will be updated when that has been determined. To date, over $240 has been raised.)

Tournament of Champions projections:
With a projected 94 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 500,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 3.1356 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.2283).
An average of 4.8859 4+-time champions (standard deviation 1.5224).
An early cutoff took place 0.549% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
James Holzhauer qualified 100.000% of the time.
Eric R. Backes qualified 84.859% of the time.
Anneke Garcia qualified 60.451% of the time.
Lindsey Shultz qualified 28.159% of the time.
Dave Leffler qualified 6.345% of the time.
Jonathan Dinerstein qualified 0.521% of the time.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- At $460,479, James moves to #2 on the all-time regular-play winnings list (passing David Madden and Julia Collins), and #10 all-time overall. The data provided on the Jeopardy! site is not entirely correct; it is missing the All-Star Game winnings for each team that did not make the final, it is missing Jerome Vered’s winnings, and it also has transposed two digits in Colby Burnett’s winnings.
- The difference between James and Megan in today’s game is the difference between a player who has figured out the timing of the signaling device and a player who has not. I would posit that if this were a written test between the three players, that James and Megan would have scored very similarly to each other. However, James has been able to master the signaling device; thus, he has been able to control the flow of the game, have confidence that he would be able to do well, and have enough money to be able to recover from having missed the first Daily Double.
- Because I bet that at least one viewer will be incredibly confused by this: The ONOMATOPOETIC WORDS category consisted of words whose letters were contained in the word ONOMATOPOETIC, not words that were actually onomatopoetic.
- Effective in first on buzzer stats: James 64.29% (36/56), Kevin 23.21% (13/57), Megan 12.50% (7/56).
- In case you’ve never noticed before: there’s a white light at the bottom left of Kevin’s podium in this screengrab with Alex looking at and pointing. That light is there so that Alex does not forget who gets to pick the next clue, either after a break or after a Triple Stumper.
