Majestyk, in Double Jeopardy!
A couple of years back, I let everybody here know that I had been invited to an audition for the game show Jeopardy! – mostly so I could be like Troy Senik – but alas, I never received the call to go to Los Angeles. That was all the way back in 2015. For those who don’t want to go to the trouble of reading my archive, (I’m flattered if you do) I’ll try to summarize briefly.
The process goes like this: You take the Jeopardy! online test and pass it (required rates of passage are not published; it is rumored to be 70-80%.) Upon successfully passing the online test, you may receive an invitation to attend a live audition with the contestant search crew. You will be administered a second test to demonstrate that you were not using your friend as a railbird or ringer for the online test; then you are invited to play a mock game of Jeopardy! with your fellow contestants to determine your photogeneity. You will be asked questions, as if you were going on the show and interviewed by Alex… And then you go home and wait.
