Being as Jennings is a software engineer, my wife was musing as to whether he might have hacked Jeopardy's computer. Cheating would be an ironic replay of the movie 'Quiz Show'. I like the guy, actually, even though I keep automatically deducting 10% from his winnings (tithing).

A hack also occured on the "Press your Luck" TV show where a guy figured out that the blinking of lights wasn't random at all and followed a handful of patterns. Managed to land on the large prize spots every time and avoided the whammies.

But the guy was an idiot and soon lost all the sizeable winnings later on.
