Can You Guess the U.S. State From These Jeopardy Clues?
Jeopardy! has been testing contestants and couch players since March 30, 1964, when the original NBC version debuted with Art Fleming as host. The syndicated version familiar to modern audiences arrived in 1984 with Alex Trebek behind the lectern. Trebek hosted nearly 37 seasons before his death in 2020, and former champion Ken Jennings is now the show's host.
Knowing the names of the states is easy enough. Identifying them from a Jeopardy! clue is a different story. Using clues cataloged by J! Archive, the fan-created database of Jeopardy! games and clues, this quiz gives you one shot at every state in the country. No map. No multiple choice. Just the clue and whatever geography, history, pop culture, or random trivia your brain decides to cough up.
