Jeopardy! champion admitted to ‘embarrassing’ Wildcard Tournament error and final clue ‘stumped’ Ken Jennings
During the recent Jeopardy! Champions Wildcard Tournament, a contestant revealed his error from the game and that the final clue may have been too difficult for them.
The show’s host, Ken Jennings, was even stumped by the clue and informed people in the studio about it, but only after the cameras stopped rolling.
Former show winner Joey DeSena, a development engineer from North Carolina, appeared as a contestant on Thursday night’s episode.
He competed against Mehal Shah, a software engineer from Seattle, Washington, and Eamonn Campbell, a lawyer from Manchester, Vermont.
Joey later described his two opponents as “tremendous competitors” whom he enjoyed getting to know.
In additional online remarks, he shared with fans about his behind-the-scenes error and other insights from the game show.
