Opted for my other author selection, should have taken more time with the city question, and was off on the organization.

Should have gotten the turkey one, shocked I got the art one. I know nothing about art, but the answer instantly popped into my head. I went through every genre I could think of, but I couldn't shake the correct answer. No idea why that held firm in my mind. Weird how Jeopardy works sometimes, maybe they just overly use that genre (that can't be the correct term) in answers.

By the way, anyone wanting to avoid spoilers about the Rutter/Jennings/Holzhauer match might want to avoid any stories about offshore betting lines, etc.
