The Jeopardy Game:
As I suspect many others have been doing, we’ve spent a lot more time at home watching TV this year. We watch Jeopardy every night. Of course we were saddened when Alex Trebeck passed recently. The last shows he recorded run M-F next week.
Anyway, I got to wondering what would be the most ideal categories I could possibly hope for if I were a contestant. This lead me to suggest the following game. List your six most ideal categories. The categories should be general enough to be like a real Jeopardy category. For example, a “Grateful Dead” category is a little too specific, but “Hippie Bands of the 60’s” works.
There are only two rules:
1. Six categories, all different. Can’t have “Bands of the 60s” as one category and “Bands of the 70s” as another.
2. Can’t use a category connected to your employment or where your vocation provides you with a special depth of knowledge. For example, as a lawyer I can’t use any category concerning the judicial/criminal justice system, or the Constitution. And, given my specialization in cannabis law, I can’t include a category based on cannabis or controlled substances in general.So I’ll kick it off.
Here’s my six ideal Jeopardy categories:
Hippie Bands of the 60s
1950s & 60s Broadway Musicals
Tropical Fish
Sports Cars
Take Me Out to the Ball Game
An Offer You Can’t Refuse (All answers from Godfather Trilogy)
Anyone interested?
