November 30th, 2004

Ken Jennings’ final episode aired just a few minutes ago today (November 30th).

I managed to capture most of it on video (low quality, high is too large in size).

Video. (For best results, run in a non-browser-integrated viewer so it blows up a bit)

His competitor wagered $4,401, when she answered “What is H&R Block?”, she put herself ahead by $1. Ken missed the question, asking “What is Fed-Ex?”

Alex Trebek: “The category is Business and Industry and here is the clue, ladies and gentlemen: Most of this firm’s 70,000 seasonal white-collar employees work only four months a year. You have 30 seconds. Good luck.”

Ken won over $2.5 million US Dollars on Jepardy.

If you can’t get to that (quite slow for me too), here’s the contents of the announcement:

Title: “Soon”
