Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category USA) for Friday, May 6, 2022 (Season 38, Game 170):
These 2 mayors gave their names to a facility built on the site of an old racetrack owned by Coca-Cola magnate Asa Candler
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Danielle Maurer, a digital marketing manager from Peachtree Corners, Georgia
Betsy Hobbs, a senior operations manager originally from Thornton, Illinois
Mattea Roach, a tutor from Toronto, Ontario, Canada (23-day total: $560,983)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Mattea Roach has moved to 23 victories after her dramatic come-from-behind victory in yesterday’s game. Betsy Hobbs and Danielle Maurer hope to end that streak today. A couple of statistical or housekeeping notes: A player with at least 10 wins has never lost on a Friday, and whoever wins today gets to meet Mayim Bialik (again in Mattea’s case), as Mayim will be hosting next week’s games.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2022 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Things can work both ways! On Tuesday, champion Mattea got a Final Jeopardy! clue about O Canada; today, challenger Danielle gets a Final Jeopardy! about her home airport. Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport began its life as Candler Field in the 1920s; the Coca-Cola tycoon owned an abandoned auto racetrack on the site; it was then renamed Atlanta Municipal Airport in 1942 and William B. Hartsfield Atlanta Airport in 1971, after the recently deceased former mayor. Another deceased mayor, Maynard Jackson, had his name appended to the airport’s name in 2003.
As I mentioned yesterday, the website issues that the Jeopardy! website had in early April conclude today, with today’s Final Jeopardy! showing up as the New York Times Clue of the Day on April 6 instead of May 6; once again, I assume that a website operator accidentally typoed a month in the date, with there being two April 6 clues (and only one running) on the website and none for May 6. The same issue happened yesterday.
We have many new offerings at The Jeopardy! Fan Online Store! Proceeds from the sale of the “Doctor Oz’s Fast-Acting Snake Oil Elixir” T-shirt are being donated to The Trevor Project:
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.
Game Recap:
Jeopardy! Round categories: Modern Royalty; Ethnic Groups; Padding the Show; International Computer Glossary; 2 First Names?; New to the OED
Mattea got off to a very strong start today, picking up 11 correct before the interviews! However, it was Danielle who got to the Daily Double after the break; she doubled up to cut well into Mattea’s advantage after Single Jeopardy, but Mattea still held the lead!
Double Jeopardy! Round categories: World Geography; Historical Fiction; Protestants; Our Brand’s On That; 4 “N”; Affairs
The Daily Doubles got split again in this round—Mattea went conservative, betting only $3,000 on hers, whereas Danielle went more aggressive, picking up $5,000 on hers on a response that started just before the buzzer! This means that Mattea didn’t have a runaway today! Scores going into Final were Mattea at $19,200, with Danielle at $11,400 and Betsy just out of contention at $7,400.
In Final, Atlanta native Danielle got Final, and that was enough for her to take victory—by a single dollar! Mattea will be back in November for the Tournament of Champions, and Danielle will be meeting Mayim Bialik on Monday!
