Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for September 3
In a tight match, Victoria Groce became the winner of the September 3 match, being one of two contestants to answer the Final Jeopardy clue correctly.
Victoria had $27,000 heading into the segment, which wasn’t enough to be a runaway. She risked $5,001 to cover Sam and got the answer correct to vault into first place with $32,001.
Sam also got the right response, but he only had $16,000. He still won a wagered $11,001, though, to end up with $27,001 in second place. Matt had $10,400, but came up with St. Paul, which was an incorrect answer. He risked nearly everything at $10,399 and left with $1 in third place.
Final Jeopardy Answer for September 3
The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on September 3, 2024 is “What is Sacramento?”
The category of State Capitals certainly narrows the possible answers here. Hopefully, the hint in the clue about a river whose name comes from something religious will lead players to the “sacrament” in Sacramento. Gabriel Moraga (1765 – 1823), a Spanish explorer and army officer, was the son of explorer José Joaquín Moraga and led numerous expeditions in the Central Valley of California. In addition to naming the Sacramento River (as Río del Sacramento), he also named the San Joaquin River, Merced River, Kings River, and Calaveras River.
