Why I tape Jeopardy

Daily Double Snap

[GoddoDoggo]

That is the snap of a man who not only played John Proctor in his high school's production of The Crucible, but was also the lead on the costume and set design, threw on a wig and played stand-in for Giles Courtney when the other kid didn't show, and won at least one award at Thespian Regionals for his astounding re-imagining of Goody Proctor's monologue.

The look of determination in that man’s eyes. Spectacular.

[stevenbrule]

The incredible snap is obviously the highlight, but his reaction and then the look in his eyes when he realizes he knows the answer is also priceless. That grin looks like a predator realizing they've caught their prey completely by surprise.

[shimomo]

That snap could have turned half of all life to dust but he used his power to come second in a game show. Truly humble, this man is.

[sjmcmichael]

This is some hardcore theatre-kid energy.

[dannywang]

The fire in his eyes. That gaze. He ain't going home a loser, that one.

[petepyeatt]

This moment is what inspired Arthur Miller to write The Crucible in 1953.

[Spitznock]

Finally, his extensive knowledge of plays pays off. Who's laughing now, Dad.

[DanielBowens]

Man I felt that from here. That snap got power

[sully]

Why do I love this so much

It’s not even like it was forced or an attempt to be funny. It felt like this was his completely genuine innate response. I strive to be like Louis.

Don't ever mess with a man who snaps his fingers on Jeopardy,

[viiviviviiv]

his name is Louis Virtel, he's a comedian. He didn't win, but he said: "I want to tell you that the rest of the game isn’t important, but that’s only because Andrew Haringer got the Final Jeopardy! question right about the Tower of London and I didn’t. Yep, he won. I’d be resentful, except here’s the thing about Jeopardy!: it burns to lose, but it felt – um – good to learn something about the Tower of London. Not kidding! Information is the true currency of Jeopardy! fans, and adding to one’s own trivia bank is a serious, consummate pleasure, even when it means you lose Jeopardy!"

[DrawdenionGames]

This man literally just answered the easiest question of his life, and he wanted us to know that

[chrissiem]

His words: What is 'The Crucible'?
His thoughts: Bitch,

[daftyfunky]

He can wipe out half the universe with the snap of his fingers. Just like that.

[JeansWebbTv]

Funnily enough, "You cannot catch Andrew" could very well have been a 50's screenplay by Arthur Miller.

[computerson]

The way he wrote his name matches the flair of that stylin snap

[dannypreklas]

You can see in his eyes the second he realizes he knows the answer

[Boulderpuncher]

I like how Mary looks dead inside, she accepted that she's gonna lose.

[davidwarhol]

This never gets old, ever. He will always win that question and be incredibly sassy and badass while doing so. Louis, we love you
