Military History | Final Jeopardy! | JEOPARDY!

[@judithmoore7892]

Three of my favorite contestants. It was impossible to pick a favorite.

[@keithmcmeniman5172]

3 - Yungsheng Wang (Los Angeles, California & Lafayette, Louisiana) ($84,202) 4 - David Sibley (Walla Walla, Washington) ($78,098) 8 - Hannah Wilson (Chicago, Illinois) ($229,801)

[@KJ-of6lf]

They were still flying a few of these when I was in S Korea 1988.

[@radarksu]

They are still flying them today!

[@brownro214]

@@radarksu Still active flying out of Osan AFB.

[@anthonyatwork1745]

The U-2 E Dragon Lady is currently based at Beale Air Force Base in Marysville California. Though rumor is they're going to be retired soon.

[@KJ-of6lf]

​@@anthonyatwork1745 just like the Buff? 😆

[@Thelby1]

The Ding, Ding helps spread the cheer at the end of Jeopardy Episodes!

[@victorjohnson7512]

Dang, I was thinking about the first nuclear submarine

[@kaiserky5493]

Couldnt there be Overheard on Set for this?

[@graceannelove2288]

Hannah wins for her amazing hair! Work it girl ;)

[@michaeljohnson9916]

The brain is a strange thing. I could come up with the name of the pilot (Francis Powers) in 30 seconds, but not the name of his craft. Darn it!

[@enbym1793]

That group hug at the end is so precious.

[@mr.timetraveler8784]

For the third game in a row, the champion who won over $40,000 (Matthew Marcus $42,200, Cris Pannullo, $71,821, and now Hannah Wilson, $45,200) lost in the quarterfinals.

[@serioushex3893]

that was really nice for all of them at the end. great crew of contestants.

[@JDHutchison]

Comment to prevent spoilers.

[@theemmjay5130]

Spoiler to prevent comments.

[@germanname1990]

I was thinking the Blackbird. Close but no cigar; off by just a few years.

[@theemmjay5130]

Well, the SR-71 was a product of Lockheed's famous "Skunk Works," as was the U-2, so yes, you were very close. You just picked too fast of a plane.

[@clayrapp1557]

Same here. Hadn't even heard of the U2. Learn something every day

[@djp3525]

I got it right. I knew it had to be connected to a historic event.

[@BrentWolgamott]

Someone help, so does Hannah have a chance to make the semi’s as a (4 of the highest scoring) wild card? Or they don’t do that anymore?

[@Itsoo1]

No wild cards this tournament. Only the winners of the QF advance.

[@Driven2Beers]

Well I feel stoooopid now. I was thinking jet pack.

[@andrewklang809]

Thunderball didn't come out until 1965.

[@lashendawest7509]

Congratulations david on advancing to the semi finals

[@davidellis5141]

Thank You Very Much !

[@PrimarchX]

Still in service today! Of course I got it.

[@andrewklang809]

I guess I'm a little less proud of myself for getting it if all three of them got it, but compared with yesterday, better to be part of a winning crowd than to have the right answer, but too late (and I LOVE the Pre-Raphaelites).

[@suddenwall]

The nuclear carrier and military hovercraft were first fielded between '55-60 too. I totally got it wrong 😳

[@joeycrck1479]

That's what I thought along with an air craft carrier in general.

[@justinm.1]

Spoiler I can NOT believe Hannah had to wager $10,000 on that daily double 🤯

[@BlueManIan]

She shouldn't have gone so big! 😭

[@ezioaltairac]

That was an awkward ass hug.

[@bluerock1252]

That’s what made it cute

[@eyreaus2736]

Looks fine. Adorable!

[@rosalindr4975]

It’s getting harder and harder to watch. Going too woke. Obvious that Moderna sponsor is infiltrated the game. ( God bless Alex Trebeck’ memory)

[@ezioaltairac]

@@rosalindr4975 if you think Jeopardy is woke, wait til you hear what modern society is like.

[@henrywong4843]

This almost happened Andrew He that also bet $10.000 in the finals with back to back true Daily Double in Day 5 with Sam Buttrey and rematch with Amy Schneider. Is rather strange if the Daily Double is obvious but repetitive to the quaterfinal match we seen in the first and second game round when finding Daily Double is in the first category in top clue and the second round is in the bottom clue within first and second category. Maybe, the writer should have randomize the Daily Double as it may seems a bit obvious in most Tournament of Champion.

[@theemmjay5130]

I knew this one instantly, because I'm interested in both military history and aviation history.

[@kennygr8ify]

I got this Final Jeopardy! clue right.

[@MurielMoore-c4v]

Forgot what, remembered who.

[@jesspersephone]

Damn, really wanted the 2nd placer to win

[@davidellis5141]

There is a band with the name ..

[@stampede122]

One of two planes to do so

[@davidellis5141]

​@@stampede122Rock 🪨 Lobster 🦞 ! 💃

[@danieltbrett]

Actually I believe there are at least 3.@@stampede122

[@danise1856]

If that was mentioned in the clue maybe then I would've gotten it right hahaha

[@al.n.darodda6183]

Easy Question for a Final Jeopardy

[@BlueManIan]

You should take the test to become a contestant!

[@chadho9701]

U-2 that correct, David is a semifinals, congratulations 🎉
