Correct response: Who is Banksy?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
Originally titled “Girl with Balloon” as a 2006 adaptation of his 2002 mural series, it was created with a self-destruct mechanism in case the work was ever put up for auction (namely, a shredder). It sold at Sotheby’s for £1,042,000, a record for a Banksy work, on October 5, 2018 (about seven and a half weeks before this episode taped.)
The buyer, as it turned into a piece of art history, elected to keep the piece. (Banksy, in turn, re-authenticated it with the new title, “Love Is in the Bin”.)
Here’s a video with Sotheby’s talking about the significance of what Banksy did, along with footage of the actual shredding as it happened (the shredding begins at 0:46):

Tournament of Champions projections:
With a projected 146 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 500,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 4.1369 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.7051).
An average of 7.5093 4+-time champions (standard deviation 2.1101).
An early cutoff took place 20.725% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
John Presloid qualified 16.225% of the time.
Anneke Garcia qualified 55.588% of the time.
Dave Leffler qualified 30.521% of the time.
Jonathan Dinerstein qualified 10.276% of the time.
Alex Schmidt qualified 2.604% of the time.
Jackie Fuchs qualified 0.298% of the time.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- Well, that was a much better game out of John!
- Although this was rendered moot by Final Jeopardy, Frank’s bet of $4,000 on the final Daily Double was not enough. Of course, he ended up $800 short of half of John’s total.
- After Caroline gave no answer to CHEMISTRY $2000, I thought there would be a rebound. Of course, as I’m sure Kevin Shrum will comment on at some point, sometimes a player forgets that rebounds are on the table!
- For what it’s worth, Fritz Haber is near-Pavlovian for ammonia. Except for the time he apparently tried to finance Germany’s World War I reparations by trying to extract gold from seawater, which somehow made it into a 1997 clue.
Frank had a better time in his Sports Jeopardy! appearance on the buzzer than he did in this game!
- Considering Marianopolis College in Montréal was tweeting about Caroline being an alumna, I’m not surprised that Caroline picked up the $600 and $1000 clues in STATES & PROVINCES, the Stanley Cup clue in A TROPHY CATEGORY, and mildly amused that Frank beat Caroline in on the buzzer on the clue about Quebec!
