The other two are a husband/wife pair who were both on Jeopardy! and both were multi-game winners and in the TOC. We met via the Jeopardy! players Facebook group, and I took them to lunch at Antoine's when they visited New Orleans on vacation... nicest people you'd ever want to meet; husband is a urologist and army reservist; wife is stay-at-home mom. Both smart as all get-out.



Because I'm the smartest person I've ever met!

A friend of ours that graduated as an electrical engineer. Then went back to school for pre med. Now he is a neonatologist. Smartest guy I ever knew. He can fix or build anything around a house.

Lamar McKay, President BP America
Knew him at Mississippi State and knew then he would someday be CEO of an oil company.

Looks different now but had long hair, good athlete, aced every class without studying.

Guys wanted to be him, women wanted to be with him.

Lamar lived in the same dorm suite at MSU as my brother and Lamar's brother was one of my roommates.
