Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Sports & The City) for Tuesday, November 19, 2024 (Season 41, Game 52):
At 800 West Main & 700 Central in this city are a company & a venue both involved in Triple Crowns
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
Chris Burge, a high school teacher from Farmers Branch, Texas
Mikey McCullough, a librarian from Baltimore, Maryland
Paul Clauson, a tax analyst from Madison Heights, Michigan (2-day total: $36,300)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Paul Clauson’s unpaid leave from his job has paid off on Jeopardy to the tune of two victories, $36,300, and at least a spot in Champions Wildcard. A win today, as per the overnight announcement on Inside Jeopardy, would put him in the Tournament of Champions at this point. However, Baltimore’s Mikey McCullough and Texas’s Chris Burge will want to stop him and get their own run of victories going.

Correct response: What is Louisville, Kentucky?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2024 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The two separate venues associating Louisville, Kentucky with Triple Crowns are, firstly, at 800 West Main, the headquarters of the Hillerich & Bradsby Co. the manufacturers of the famed Louisville Slugger baseball bat—associated with baseball’s “Triple Crown”.
The famous Louisville venue, located at 700 Central, is Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby, the first leg in American horse racing’s Triple Crown.
Assuming the contestants can realize that this clue refers to both baseball and horse racing and don’t get sidetracked by Baltimore (home of both MLB’s Orioles and Pimlico Race Course, venue for the Preakness), this should be a relatively straightforward clue. One that I actually enjoy as a sports clue, to be honest.
