Well, I knew the answers for all of them but the $600 question (my teammates being as helpful as usual). I even remembered Washington University, since I was born in St. Louis and my sister still lives there 🙂 We picked up another $2400 today.
So going into Final Jeopardy, we’re in third place with $5900, $1000 off of first place. The category for tomorrow is “Biblical People” which means I am so completely screwed. One of my teammates is about as religious as I am, so he’ll be of no help, but the other is active in his church group, etc. We told him it’s all up to him.
Anyway, we’ve wagered all of our money, so it’s all or nothing. We’ll see what happens tomorrow…
