	Brian Weikle: Jeopardy record holder
		Technically, both of Weikle’s records were only possible because the show doubled the dollar values of the clues, and until Ken Jennings came along, some argued that Weikle’s marks deserved Roger Maris style asterisks.
		Weikle was leading in Final Jeopardy, but none of the players got the last answer right, and Veach ended up with a shocking upset.
		For Weikle, a 1989 College Bowl champ at the University of Minnesota, the secret to quiz show success is concentration and focus.

		Brian Weikle proved himself such a devastating opponent that the experience of having played against him became known among J!
		That's not an excuse for my lousy performance -- Grace had to face the same challenge, and Brian, one of the seeded players who had been granted a bye in Round One, was equally disadvantaged, since he last played a couple of years ago.
		On that day, with those categories, and against two spectacular players of the caliber of Brian and the amazing Grace (you knew I would work that in eventually, didn't you?), that was the best I had.

		Every time the show's personnel came back to choose new contestants, Waggett prayed he wouldn't be picked.

		Well, I cheered the loudest for Chris Miller (given the nickname "Chippitywicks" by some of my offline friends during his 5-win run in the regular season), so I think he's going to take the TOC.
