Final Jeopardy! category: MASCOTS
Final Jeopardy! clue: For the first time in almost 100 years, this pro team has an official mascot, a bear named Clark
Who are the Chicago Cubs?
Emily 5200 – 4900 = 3000 (the Chicago Bears)
Andrew 11200 – 2401 = 8799 (the Portland T)
Scott 13600 – 8801 = 4799 (the Bruins)
Of course, Wrigley Field is at the corner of Clark and Addison in Chicago.
