Found out that a friend/former coworker was on JEOPARDY! today (She's Elesha from Durham). Didn't get to watch all of it, but saw she was in second place going into Final Jeopardy within striking distance of the defending champ. And it unfolded like so:
Trebek: "The answer: He was a spy and invented the mug shot used in the Wild West (my paraphrase)."
E: (snickers) "Who is Polaroid?"
The correct response: Who is Allan Pinkerton.
That pressure was sure getting to her.
