$100,000 Pyramid - 'Things that are strained' - a worn out Pyramid contestant!

Anne Bloom and the contestant are playing for $10,000.
While Dick Clark wisecrack's about the contestant being at the Winner's Circle for their "102nd" time, once again, a great 'meta clue' slipped by - why not "A worn out contestant/tired contestant" for "Things that are strained?" The Winner's Circle seems like quite a stressful place...

Bad relationships...for...Things that Are Strained.

[@Lava1964]

"A clown" was a peculiar clue.

[@JZCRAZY]

"Jack In The Box"

[@nextbarker2702]

Could you say a PULLED muscle or is that synonymous with STRAIN

[@jeepthing98]

Things in a Box: Could she have just said "Jack"?

[@peterkrahn2224]

Jack is a great clue...I was thinking Pamdoras Goods

[@chapter7thomas]

She could have said "Jack's Head"...as Jack's head does pop out of a box...or she could also say "Jack's popping out head".

that makes laura a 85 day champion on jeopardy!
