Tuesday night was the first episode of the Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time tournament, which is a primetime showdown between three of the best to ever play the game – James Holzhauer, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter.
The three Jeopardy legends will be competing in three, hour-long episodes (which were shot back in December) this week. Here’s a good breakdown/refresher of how the tournament will work.
Holzhauer, who became one of the greatest to play the game during his wild run last spring and then later won the 2019 Tournament of Champions, had some fun talking trash to Jennings before the airings.
And then during Tuesday night’s episode he had fun playfully taunting Rutter after nailing an answer:
Rutter is from Lancaster, Pa., so that was a fun jab at a getting a question right about Philadelphia.
Holzhauer had a perfect tweet about it, too:
Here are the results from Tuesday’s episode, by the way. I don’t want to spoil it for you.
