Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for March 26
As expected, no one got the Final Jeopardy clue correct in the March 26 match, but Josh still managed to eke out a fourth win with a conservative bet.
Melanie had the slim lead with $12,000 and went with the cover bet over Josh with $11,201. But her incorrect answer of “Nelson,” in reference to Horatio Nelson, dropped her to third with $799.
Josh made the same guess, losing $6,399 of his $11,600. Still, that safer bet got him the win with $5,201, extending his winnings to $59,202.
John didn’t have a lot to work with, just $2,600. He also made the same guess and lost $1,600, finishing in second with $1,000.
Final Jeopardy Answer for March 26
The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on March 26, 2025 is “Who is William Bligh?”
William Bligh is best known for his involvement in the mutiny on the HMS Bounty in 1789, as the mutineers cast him into the sea when he was a lieutenant. One theory for the mutiny was that Bligh was abusive to the crew, while another was that the mutineers enjoyed their lives in Tahiti too much. Either way, it was his job to bring the mutineers to justice.
Bligh was charged later for his behavior on a different vessel, the HMS Warrior. An original document from William Bligh can be found here where he explains that he was charged for being a “rascal and scoundrel.” He later became the governor of New South Wales in 1806.
