Jeopardy 3/1985 - Bruce/Yvonne/Bob - Part 1

Here's something everybody should know about: an early episode of Jeopardy from the Trebek era, with the cool red and blue set, no less!

Anyway, champion Bill returns to face challengers Yvonne and Bob, and watch as Alex pays tribute to Washington D.C.!

NOTE: I am aware I could've put all this in one part. It's just that I feel seperate parts make it easier to find a certain part.

DISCLAIMER: Nothing you see here is my property.

Question about part of the rules... I know that the champion always picks first, but in the days when champions would retire undefeated, how would they decide who started the Jeopardy! round on a day with three new players (if a champion retired on the previous day)?

[Hondo20132]

@blozier2006 It would be determined by drawing numbers.

Jeopardy! in Washington DC is now on WJLA.

@Fartingbellybutton That's an ABC station. I should know; I'm from that area.

Mr. Trebek looks the same. Is he that old???

@Fartingbellybutton It always has been on WJLA, at least as far as I know. I've lived near DC on and off all my life.

@zachhoran he also appeared on Super Jeopardy!, hopefully one day, the entire tournament will make it to Youtube one day

Bruce was a five time champ and wound up in the TofC final in November 1985, losing to Jerry Frankel. Jerry died in 1986 and Bruce died a few years ago, as per the Sony Jeopardy board.
