Carter makes it onto our ToC Tracker if he wins today. Of course, now that I’ve thought of it and mentioned it, I’ve probably jinxed him.

Today’s contestants:

Margaret Miles, a librarian from Wilmington, NC

wk31_0411_0415_miles_lineup

Hannah Gage, an archivist from Newport, OR

wk31_0411_0415_gage_lineup

Carter Spires, a law student from Birmingham, AL (2-day total: $31,200)

wk31_0411_0415_spires_lineup

These scores were mostly all-Coryat today! All of the Daily Double wagers were between $3,000 and $4,000!

Scores going into Final Jeopardy:
Margaret $32,000
Carter $20,000
Hannah $5,400

Final Jeopardy! category: NORTH AMERICAN GEOGRAPHY

Final Jeopardy! clue: Far from New England, it’s the state that has the shortest land border with Canada, only 45 miles

What is Idaho? (Hannah went for something that appeared to be close to Michigan)


Hannah 5400 – 5400 = 0 Carter 20000 + 12001 = 32001 Margaret 32000 + 8100 = 40100 (1-day total: $40,100)

Yep. I jinxed him.

Interestingly enough, Pennsylvania’s Lake Erie coastline is only 42 miles. Obviously that’s not a land border, though! Another fun border-length fact: The entire Michigan ― Canada border is either lake or river!

Each state’s border length (combined water and land) with Canada:

  • Thanks for the recap on today’s game. I missed it this evening, but my dad told me the winner was a librarian and that she looked like a librarian. I did a search and found your site! I like your notes. It would be great if you could also include the double jeopardy questions, amounts wagered, and results.
