What is your "Jeopardy story"? |
|
You have 30 seconds to answer a question from Trebek about something odd or funny in your life. On Jeopardy they usually entail "backpacking through ..." stories or celebrity encounters.

I watched Jeopardy once.
I thought there were a lot of commercials.
Later, I got rid of that TV.
The end
If this story sells well, maybe someday I will write a sequel

6. He also asks the contestants about unusual collections... |

So I guess the producers don't want you to talk about your vintage porn or your fingernail and hair clippings (Orthodox Jews only need apply for those) so I would be banal and mention my fridge magnets from everywhere I travel. I know, boring, but I have one from Australia where the Kangaroo hops, and an exploding Vesuvius from Pompeii. So watch with the disses, people ;-)
