If you were a contestant on Jeopardy, what story would you talk about? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Ever since my sister was a contestant on Jeopardy in September (her show aired in December last year), I have now rekindled my interest in Jeopardy after over a decade. After the first commercial break, Alex talks with the contestants, who often share stories and stuff.

Let's say you did well enough to become a contestant. What story or stories would you talk about? I have a few stories I could share.

1. The time my family was on vacation in the Summer of 1993 and I got a placemat that had a map of the United States and their capitals. After a day or two, I had them all memorized and my sisters, knowing I have a great memory, kept asking me "What's the capital of such and such state."

2. The time years ago when my parents had company over and I came downstairs and said something that the guests thought was interesting. My mother then said, "No he got that from 101 Dalmations." I don't remember what I said.

3. In 3rd grade, when we had spelling tests and we had to come up with a word to study that wasn't on the test. I usually put random words in them but one of them caught the teacher's (and my parent's) attention. It was two words, actually: David Letterman. My parents would tape his show and I would watch it with them.

I don't think I have any stories that would display me in an intelligent light.

Id tell them about the time I tried to make a pizza, and it took over an hour because I never took the cardboard from underneath off.

I'd tell them about the time I started choking on a pen cap in the middle of class and didn't want to make a scene, so I swallowed it.
