Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
Aahil Makhani, a business student originally from Birmingham, Alabama
Nannono Zirimu, a regulatory analyst from Albany, New York
Quentin Powers, a returned Peace Corps volunteer from Arlington, Virginia (1-day total: $14,200)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
After a strong opening round, Quentin Powers is your new Jeopardy! champion. Today, he faces off in his title defense against Aahil Makhani of Birmingham and Nannono Zirimu of Albany. Quentin’s buzzer acumen dropped off during Double Jeopardy yesterday; his score today might be dependent on how well that part of his game goes for him today.
It also appears as though Quentin will use important years to him as “lucky numbers” to bet; apparently, he’s a Borussia Dortmund fan, having wagered their founding year of 1909 yesterday. We’ll see if he sticks to 1909 today or introduces new numbers into his wagering arsenal.
Today’s game also features a category presented by Oscar the Grouch. I’m looking forward to it already!

Final Jeopardy! Clue: His burial site at the London church of St. Giles’ Cripplegate includes a figure of a snake holding an apple
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.
Correct response: Who is John Milton?
More Information About Final Jeopardy!:
John Milton, best known today for Paradise Lost—his adaptation of the part of the Book of Genesis dealing with the fall of man (the temptation of Adam and Eve by Satan and their removal from the Garden of Eden)—was buried at St. Giles-without-Cripplegate on his death in the 17th century. His burial site includes a snake holding an apple as a reference to the snake in the Book of Genesis tempting Adam and Eve with that “forbidden fruit”.
Once I realized that the apple was a reference to Paradise Lost, this felt like a relatively straightforward Final for me; one other response I had considered was Isaac Newton, where an apple falling from the tree inspired Newton’s research into gravity.
Game Recap & Tonight’s Game Stats:
Looking to find out who won Jeopardy! today? Here’s the Wednesday, March 4, 2026 Jeopardy! by the numbers, along with a recap:
Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: Oh, Hi March; Recent Fiction; International Cuisine; 4 Times The Fun; Facts About Pop Singers; Altered Words)
Quentin did not remember the Alamo early; he was in a deep hole at -$2,000 two clues in. He recovered well, though; while we originally had a 3-way tie for the lead at $1,800 through 15 clues, there was an eventual scoring change that gave Aahil his points back.
Statistics at the first break (15 clues):
Aahil 4 correct 0 incorrect
Nannono 2 correct 0 incorrect
Quentin 5 correct 2 incorrect
Today’s interviews:
Aahil is part of a silent book club.
Nannono had a college radio show at Syracuse.
Quentin learned to read very early.
Coming out of the break, both Aahil and Quentin played well; Aahil’s lead got extended coming out of the break thanks to that score reversal. On the opening board, Aahil went 3/5 in March events and the number 4, while Quentin went 3/5 in international cuisine and altered words.
Statistics after the Jeopardy round:
Aahil 12 correct 2 incorrect
Quentin 10 correct 3 incorrect
Nannono 2 correct 0 incorrect
Scores after the Jeopardy! Round:
Aahil $5,600
Quentin $3,600
Nannono $1,800
Double Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: Even More Opera; Ed TV; Biology; “Ram”; Cities In Color; I Love Trash With Oscar The Grouch)
A round beset by two missed Daily Doubles, 8 total incorrect responses, and 10 Triple Stumpers kept the scores down. Quentin led entering Final after going 4/5 in “Ram”; Aahil went 3/5 in biology despite the Daily Double miss.
Statistics after Double Jeopardy:
Quentin 19 correct 5 incorrect
Aahil 18 correct 7 incorrect
Nannono 5 correct 1 incorrect
Total number of unplayed clues this season: 9 (0 today).
Scores going into Final:
Quentin $8,600

Final Jeopardy today turned out to be a Triple Stumper, meaning that Quentin held on to win thanks to his strong position entering Final Jeopardy. He’ll go for win #3 tomorrow!
Tonight’s results:
Nannono $2,200 – $2,000 = $200 (Who is William the Conqueror?)
Aahil $4,800 – $4,800 = $0 (Who is St. Patrick?)
Quentin $8,600 – $2,002 = $6,598 (Who is Lister?) (2-day total: $20,798)

Andy’s Thoughts:
- I assume Quentin’s Final Jeopardy wager of $2,002 is a reference to Timor-Leste’s year of independence.
Texas A&M’s website itself says “Howdy”, not “Gig ‘Em”, is the school’s “official greeting”, automatically rendering any other response incorrect.
- Is it just me, or does Oscar the Grouch sound like half of r/Jeopardy?
- Today’s J!6 clues can be found at the monthly archive.
Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:
(Scores: Quentin $8,600 Aahil $4,800 Nannono $2,200)
Quentin: Standard cover bet is $1,001. Enough people don’t bet enough from second place in this situation that it’s probably not a good idea to bet any more than the standard $1,001. (Actual bet: $2,002)
Nannono: As Aahil needs to bet at least $2,800 to have any hope of winning, I’d bet less than $200 here and take second if Aahil is incorrect in Final Jeopardy. (Actual bet: $2,000)
Aahil: Bet at least $2,800 to have any hope of victory. (Actual bet: $4,800)
