The returning champion set a record for the most money ever won in one show; he won $50,000; he won on Thursday. On Friday (today) he bet all but $1 on final Jeopardy and gave an incorrect response. The young law student in the middle won over $41,000 or the second highest one day total ever. Just my luck to compete with the two all time one game winners. I had a really hard time ringing in, but knew all but four of the responses. I did not provide any incorrect responses (yeah!) and I answered Final Jeopardy! correctly and it was a sports question so I came in second and won $2,000. I also got to say "Let's Get Married for $200, Alex." I did not curse, I did not cry, and thanks to a wonderful make-up artist, I looked good.

It was truly an incredible experience and just think I'll be in reruns on the Game Show Network until eternity or the end of satellite and cable.
