During one of the Q & A sessions during a break in the taping of the show, a Canadian in the audience asked why there are so many Civil War and other USA-centric questions. Alex reminded the person that it's an American show.

What day(s) is/are Pruitt on?

Thursday (and then ?) if I'm not mistaken.

Nope, can't be Thursday - that's a girl and the head trainer for the Tampa Bay Lightning. Step easy out on that stage, "Frank"!

(paying it forward)

Oh man, if the guy from Muncie wins on Wednesday, who am I supposed to root for?

If the other guy from Ontario is still there Thursday I hope Pruitt kicks his ass (physically as well as metaphorically).

If you feel like wagering with your friends, I can tell you who wins each night.

Nice photoshop.

Thanks!

Okay, I was told that this would happen, but suddenly I have 4 complete strangers asking me to be facebook friends. My picture hit the Jeopardy site today.

Weird...

People who want to be "influencers" see anyone whose existence they become aware of as someone they can add to their friend count. I started getting that from posting on Instagram.

Either that or just stalkers.

Guess this is part of my one shining moment in the spotlight.

Your 15 minutes of fame converts to roughly 20 minutes Canadian.

Nice!

One of the strangers is a former Jeopardy contestant who runs the ultra-secret facebook site for Jeopardy contestants. Clearly not a place to meet chicks, but a good ego boost nonetheless.

I’m part of that group. Lots of good people there, or maybe it’s just the batch of people I recorded with.

I hope it’s Julia Collins. Life goals.
