Waching daily Jan 25 2018

- [Alex] Two-game final. Big bucks.

250,000 dollars to the champion.

Austin, Alan, Buzzy. Have fun, you are already. Buzzy?

What is Chevra?

- [Alex] Chevra, yes.

Sorry about that.

- [Alex] Austin?

Slugs for 200?

I was like, I'm gonna play for the place

and hope these two guys beat each other up.

Okay I'm gonna put it in the right--

what is a...

nun fun run? Oh, fun run? Oh God.

What is a nun fun run?

All three were acceptable.

- [Austin] Okay.

(laughter)

- [Alex] Sorry, you lost 42 hundred right now.

Incorrect. What did you lose? 35 hundred.

You're at 65 hundred.

56 hundred, interesting.

This is still a very even match.

That whole game just kind of went by in a blur.

I knew that I had ground to pick up, obviously,

but it also wasn't that far.

Of all of the tournaments we have done on Jeopardy,

this year's Tournament of Champions

has been the most fun. We laugh.

They're wearing glasses, so I obviously

had to be the "see no evil".

- [Buzzy] And then I was the "speak no evil".

Obviously. Obviously.

Because --

Thank God you said,

"if you're looking for a question writer"

and not "if you're looking for a replacement host".

Buzzy what about you?

Get scared.

(audience laughs)

- [Alex] Buzzy.

What's a buddy movie?

- [Alex] Yes.

"The Body Human" for 16.

- [Alex] Answer there, Daily Double.

It's Friday. Let's make it a true Daily Double.

- [Alex] Okay.

- [Buzzy] What is a ball-and-socket joint.

- [Alex] You have just doubled your score.

(audience cheers)

I didn't have a choice, in my mind,

I was like this is it, this is the

Lloyd Dobler "dare to be great" moment and I took it.

- [Alex] 250 thousand dollars.

A hundred thousand for Alan Nguyen

and 50 thousand for Austin.

Enjoy the moment Buzzy.

Congratulations.

I'm gonna have a lot of fun.

Definitely finish the college fund for my daughter

but after that I'm gonna just try to enjoy it

and not take it too seriously, just like I did

playing Jeopardy. What a way to win, right?
