In jeopardy on "Jeopardy!"?

Tonight on "Jeopardy!"...actually, it was Monday night's show, but since it aired on Tuesday here in L.A., I get to say "tonight on 'Jeopardy!'"...I recognized one of the contestants because he had also passed the test at the same tryout as me, on April 4th. He's the only one I would have remembered, in fact, because I remember thinking he had the best chance to actually get on the show of the six of us who had passed the test. (He had flown to L.A. from South Carolina more or less solely to take the contestant test, and he was a history teacher, and they love to have teachers as contestants.)

He didn't win because he got Final Jeopardy! wrong. Sitting at home, I got it right. Yes, I know there's a big difference between being on the show and being at home.
