Summer 2022 Jeopardy! champion Luigi de Guzman

Another day, another Jeopardy! victory for Luigi de Guzman.

Ouij, as he is now online, battled back and forth with the two other contestants to notch his four win in a row.

Ouij’s commentary

If I had been in Ken’s shoes, I probably would have cut Luigi off *brusquely* and moved on. But Ken hesitated, and in the moment, I saw him hesitate, and I kept talking.

The rule ended up on my side, but looking at it cold, I see how it could have ended up differently.

Neckware update

Today’s tie is red and black stripes, the colors of @CatholicUniv, my law school.

Incidentally, I had to find a plausible tie online. I never did buy one at the Pryzbyla Center when I was a student, and I don’t think they sell them any more? https://t.co/zkLZEGKyYw
