The season of Jeopardy is over, so they're into repeats and tournaments right now. A new season of "Who Wants to get their Heiny Kicked by Ken" starts in September

I was just flipping through channels and came across Jeopardy and wondered the same thing. He seemed pretty unstoppable...

oh, I see. Personally I hope he's on the verge of winning the record but then someone bets an assanine amount on the final jeopardy and wins so Jennings gets his sh*t wrecked.

I didn't think that he had broken the most money in one game, and the alltime money record yet. oops :ph34r:

In fact the last game of the season, he set a new 1 day record of $75,000. He smashed the previous record which was around $50,000 IIRC. And his total winnings are about the same as the salary of Chuck Kobasew B)

Yah, but who has more fun making that money and who gets the hotter looking women?

#1: Ken Jennings is a married Mormon so he probably doesn't care about getting hot women.
#2: Ken Jennings is probably more famous than Chuck Kobasew is worldwide and he didn't have to break a sweat to do it.

So, all things considered I'd call it even.

So with tithe to the Mormon church he should be making Dave Lowry dollars afterwards maybe?

Chuck probably didn't endure the Atomic Wedgies™ that Ken probably had to endure as a child/teen. I see him as the Martin Prince type in school.
