Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for September 17

Aiden clinched the title of two-day champion by correctly answering Final Jeopardy, edging out Will who was leading going into that round.

Aiden came in second initially, having $11,000, but he successfully doubled that amount through his bet, ultimately taking the lead and ending up with a total of $22,000.

Initially, Will possessed $13,200, but unfortunately gave an incorrect answer equivalent to “Harry Potter,” which cost him a substantial sum of $8,801 in a wager. Consequently, he ended up placing third in the competition. At the same time, Alisa managed to double her initial funds of $5,400 and secured herself a spot in third place with a total of $10,800.

Final Jeopardy Answer for September 17

The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on September 17, 2024 is “Who is Percy Jackson?”

The hint doesn’t pertain to Harry Potter, as it does feature half-bloods, but instead refers to the Percy Jackson & the Olympians book series penned by Rick Riordan. In this narrative, Percy is a demigod, the child of the Greek deity Poseidon and mortal woman Sally Jackson (it’s quite typical for Greek gods to have offspring with humans).

12-year-old character initiates the storyline and is depicted with ADHD and dyslexia, possibly as a result of his ability to read Ancient Greek and possessing combat instincts. Over the course of the series, he eventually ascends to the position of head counselor at Camp Half-Blood, a summer camp for demigods. The seventh book in the series titled “Wrath of the Triple Goddess” is set to be published on September 24, 2024.
