It does, but then, the wife told me to wipe the smug smile off my face when I got it right. I also remembered the battle. But as noted above, it really wasn’t that broad a category.
Don’t ever expect me to get Modern Pop Music or Oscar Winners and be correct. 
Woo hoo! Got the first one!

Again, how many examples can you think of other than 1066, 1215, 1492, 1776, and 1941? :dubious:

Opinion is clearly divided! Perhaps a poll is in order. 
Just a brag, I can capitalize “Jeopardy”.
Just to brag, I remember that it has an exclamation point.
“Jeopardy!”
Just to brag for someone else, Alex Trebek can capitalize on Jeopardy!
Don’t you mean “Jeopardy!”?
(Just a brag.)
What was 1215?
:eek:
Seriously…I’m completely blanking here.
Ah, never mind. I guessed it. But I would not have remembered if you asked me.
Never guessed the Final Jeopardy answer from the category, but I’ve guessed it from the clue when all three contestants were wrong a handful of times. That made me feel smrt.
Lunchtime.
He was a headless Thompson gunner, right?
Depends on how famous you want. 1485. 1927. 2001. 1945. 1969. 1976. There are a few others that I could easily thing of.
I play a sort of game where I shout out a “question” response as each category is revealed. Usually it’s a smart-alec response, but on the rare occasion it will come up on the board & I feel like a genius. For just a fraction of a second. :o
I did this one time, too. It was something like “Soccer Players From Brazil Who Are Very Good and Everyone Has Heard Of.” Not exactly that but whatever it was, it was clear the answer was Pele.
It is a word I can never spell correctly and we don’t get spell check for titles. You want a piece of me Suze! Come get it!
The year your momma was born? The year rich people screwed poor people? The Battle of Runnymede? The Magna Carta?
All of the above. According to Adam Smith (which I am currently reading), much of the revolt of the barons was about King John favoring independent towns.
We do that too. It’s rare that we can’t get at least one out of the thirty responses right.
We also play “Obscene Jeopardy!” where you shout out a funny and obscene question as soon as the answer is revealed instead of the correct question.
I got this one (after being given the clue (although in our household, we’ll often guess answers just from the category), but I admit that it’s been years since I read the Chanson, and I didn’t recall those names.
OTOH, I’ll bet most people don’t know that many “medieval” pieces of literature, even by name, so how many possible answers (that they could expect contestants to come up with)are there, really? The Canterbury Tales isn’t even medieval, by many definitions, although it’s listed here:
