Jeopardy Question

[Keebler Elf]

I was watching Jeopardy today and it got me thinking. What happens if two of the three contestants end up with negative $? Does that mean the third person automatically wins without Final Jeopardy? Has this ever happened?

Yes. Yes.

What are two stupid contestents, Alex?

...And if all three end up negative, they just have two contestants the next day with a blank spot with idiot written in the box?

 

[WhaWhaWha]

Three negative scores? Would watching this be like SNL's version of Celebrity Jeopardy, featuring Sean Connery?

 

[Keebler Elf]

Wikipedia (under Jeopardy) states how often it's happened.

Good one Smerf, only the 2nd time I've laughed with you and not at you.
