The worst for me are people whose first or second stories are just ordinary things are the worst, because you know that's one of the most interesting things that have happened in that person's life.

Alex actually has a choice of which of the three prompts written on your contestant card he wants to ask you about. You go over the three with a Contestant Coordinator in the Green Room and can state your preference for first choice, but it's ultimately Alex's choice.

Well, I’m dumb and didn’t think about until today that surely there must be a jeopardy these on SA. So my wife did her performance on jeopardy today. All I have to say is holy hell is it both extremely fun, and extremely intense. We went in knowing it was going to probably be an all day experience, and you still aren’t prepared for both how mentally exhausting it can be (and I wasn’t the contestant). The euphoria from the game afterwards (win or lose) is super intense. It took me all night and a bunch of booze to really calm down. My biggest shock is how drat small the clues are to read on the real screen. Also, the others saying that it’s hard to track score are totally right, the game just moves faster in real life than on TV. So of course I can’t say how she did, but in my opinion you’ll be entertained. Air date is January 3rd. Big thanks and shout out to Hookshot, we appreciate your advice!
