Is there anybody who doesn’t love Sam Buttrey?

I, for one, love Sam. Especially the phrases he uses before making his daily double wagers. Too bad Colby got a tough draw tonight though.

I am 67 and Sam is close to my age and I feel as though he represents the elderly everywhere and the potential for great playing on Jeopardy at any age.

Very happy Sam Buttrey got this in the bag today! His “Bring It” catchphrase is a classic

And he's about to bring a lot more in the semifinals 😅

Sam Buttrey legitimately is one of my absolute favorite Jeopardy contestants. I mean, honestly, what's not to love about him?

In recent memory, and most winning contestants leave me in a day or two, I don’t remember ever liking a JEOPARDY winner as much as I like Sam. Every episode when they’re down to the final clue on the board I hear “Bring it” in my mind. I’m disappointed when a player doesn’t say it. He’s just the best.

Yay for Sam. I thought this was an easy final, but whenever I actually know one I think it was easy. lol

Same. I was surprised only one got it

Love Sam Buttrey; he is a man of character, has a unique sense of humor, very intelligent, and I could go on!

I LIVE for Sam Buttrey!!

Congratulations Sam buttery on advancing to the semi finals tomorrow

Congrats, Sam!

As a children's librarian, I couldn’t have shown up at work tomorrow if I didn’t get this correct. I’m not so in to these fantasy books, but to each their own.😊

I overthought the clue tonight. I remember the book that was referenced in the explanation on the correct response. I should have known it was tied to that book.

It's funny that you mention not being into the fantasy books. C.S. Lewis wrote this series at a time when many critics and teachers didn't think that children would be interested in reading fantasy novels, thinking that they needed books that would help them relate to real life.

@@markp7262yes, a lot of books from that era had a moral to preach to the kids. Now we know a lot of kids like fantasies like Narnia, Harry Potter, or even just Polar Express or Jumanji.

The contestant in the middle shouldn't have shown up to the game. This "invitational" is a joke

Fun Fact: In Sam Buttrey’s last appearance, he wore that yellow sweater and lost to Matt Amodio, while everyone knew he was eliminated from last year’s “Jeopardy! Masters”. This time, he wears that yellow sweater and he won.

Sam is the best! He is more than a Steve Martin look alike. Funny and smart man! Congrats, Sam!

That year made me realize that the novel isn’t that old, despite its time period.

@@kentekuzan True. I guess the WW2 setting being dwarfed by Narnia for the majority of the novel did it in for me. Besides the fantasy elements, Narnia blends Middle Ages and a post 1600s era as well.

YAY, SAM!!!!

GALACTIC TRENDSETTERS ✈️✈️✈️

Sam’ hooray!

A stab in the dark , got it. Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn now and then

Got this in half a second. Yay, childhood books are paying off! 😂

Happy Sam got this. It was too easy actually. The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe is one of my favorites

Sam's a stud. And a hugger. A really good hugger. Love seeing that.

I thought of closet but not close enough.

This one is right over the plate.

So I know two contestants in this tourney-Jason and Colby. On both their finals, I can brag I got the Final right and they didn’t.

Had to read the clue about three times before I finally "clued" in!! GOt it before time expired, though!

I would have been completely embarrassed had I not gotten this one. My 9-year-old daughter and I listen to the entire series radio dramatization in the car, on the way to and from school (not just this series, we rotate a bunch of them). I also used to own the old boxed set, BEFORE they changed the order. I think one of my sisters confiscated it for their family at some point. Now I have to settle for the new version set.

Got it! I wouldn't have bet my life on it, though.

If you're going to go for a funny answer, why not "What is A Bar?" 😄

Steve Martin wins again! 😀😂😂

I remember reading that novel in grade school. I wasn't 100% sure when I made my guess, but it was the best I could think of, and for good reason. I was right! 😁

I love when I guess and get it right!

Got this one right thinking and not writing.

How the hell did only ONE OF THEM WRITE THE CORRECT RESPONSE!?!?!? I’ve only read The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe once, but I’ve seen the Disney movie AND the old BBC mini series MANY MANY times

I can't believe the two didn't get it!

I love Sam Buttry! Glad he did so well. But, please, only one tournament once a year, to determine the best player in a given year. Please....we like to see people like ourselves, not the same winners over and over, like groundhog day. Best not to mess with a successful show.

i'll admit to getting the answer wrong by giving the name of the novel rather than the object. rtfc! 😂

Sam exudes being a nice guy.

This one seemed obvious. Especially given the pop culture references for it. Nice!

I got this wrong!

I usually hate when I see people comment how easy an answer was even if I know it but I have to agree with you on this one

What is Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe by CS Lewis one of the 7 books of Chronicles of Narnia. This one was easy.

@shorty7363

Actually it was looking specifically for the title object, so just "wardrobe" would have been correct, not the entire book title.

I can’t believe that only one of them got it right. I thought it was a very easy answer.
