Answer: He is Known as That Nerd from Jeopardy! Question: Who is Ken Jennings?
For Torontoist, the best part about getting home from work last summer was sitting down to stalk watch Jeopardy champ Ken Jennings. Perhaps it was his beady Mormon eyes, or the way he correctly answered all the questions about Canada: we couldn’t get enough of pre-hype Ken Jen. Then the media frenzy started and Torontoist lost interest.
But now it seems Ken Jennings is becoming rather unpublicized again. Did you know he is in Toronto this week? Neither did Torontoist, until we caught a teeny mention of it in the back of yesterday’s Globe. It’s just like the old days again, before all the pop culture rags were interested in the quiz show genius and it felt like he was answering the daily double just for you.
The two-million-plus dollar winner will be appearing at Canadian Tire (1019 Sheppard Ave E at Leslie) this afternoon between 5:30-6:30pm to sign autographs and show off his new trivia CD game Quizzology.
