Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Landmarks) for Wednesday, September 22, 2021 (Season 38, Game 8):
96 miles in total during its 3-decade existence, the most well-known part of this was about the same length as an Olympic marathon
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Christopher Stucky, a communications specialist from Bloomington, Illinois
Paula Scheider, an ROI trainer from Tulsa, Oklahoma
Matt Amodio, a Ph.D student from New Haven, Connecticut (25-day total: $893,201)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Jeopardy! is a capricious game. Trying to predict when the nearly unpredictable will happen is difficult, but fun. At this point, per my prediction model, Matt has about a 1.6% chance of breaking Ken Jennings’ record and winning 75 games. He also has about a 7% chance of losing today. However, the prediction model does think that the two likeliest times for Matt to lose are either at the end of a taping week, when has become more tired from already taping four games, or at the start of the week, before he’s had a chance to fully regain his buzzer timing. The unpredictability of when the streak will end, though, is one reason why so many fans get invested in these streaks and make sure to watch every day.
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. When wearing a mask, ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is the Berlin Wall?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2021 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
The Berlin Wall, which was standing for most of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, spanned 96 miles around the outer border of what was West Berlin in Germany (the half of the city given to the UK, US, and France following World War II. The most famous part of the wall, the easternmost, separated West Berlin from East Berlin and was between 26 and 27 miles—nearly the same distance as an Olympic marathon (26 miles, 385 yards).

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Both Chris and Paula were doing a lot of self-promotional work on social media before today’s game. After the Jeopardy! round, I get the sense that a lot of people will be thinking mid-match that tonight will be the night that Matt loses.
