Sports categories on the show always seem to get social media talking. So, I ask in this week’s Poll of the Week:
How do you feel when you see a sports category on Jeopardy!?
(We’ll talk about the results on an upcoming episode of #JeopardyLivePanel!)

I long to meet and compete in the Alex Trebek Jeopardy! era. I don’t know how many times I have taken the test (I even made it to the interview portion when they used to travel to different cities for auditions. I made the judges laugh when I made my bets in different currencies such as rubles, yen, and drakma…) but I have never received the call. I know thousands try out and probably get perfect scores (I have never gotten more than about 75% in the online test while I do much better watching the show daily) and only 400 a year are called. I wish it would happen but if wishes were fishes, my cats would have tuna everyday!
Patrick: All I can say as a fan is “keep trying!”
One recent champion auditioned ten times over a twenty year period!
