I know all of you were watching my friend David on Jeopardy!, but just in case you missed it . . .
Actually, you know what? If you live in Salt Lake, you never saw David win. His first appearance was on a Friday, and KJZZ preempts Jeopardy! on Fridays for high school football. Then there was a week off for kids' Jeopardy!, and David was back on the 15th. KJZZ then preempted Jeopardy! again for a preseason Jazz game. Then David was on Tuesday, but he lost.
He really went for the gusto, though. He bet all of his $11,000 on Final Jeopardy, but didn't come up with the right answer and ended up coming in third (parting prize: $1,000). I was yelling "Adam Smith! Adam Smith!" at the TV, but since he was several hundred miles away and the show was actually taped in July, it wasn't of much help.
Well done David, though. I will be eternally jealous that you get to call yourself "two-time Jeopardy! champion." I will also be jealous of the $30K+ that you won, but maybe not eternally.
Anyway, you can catch all of David's Jeopardy! time on youtube, if you follow the link from a few posts ago.
