Just finished watching a live video about the draft picks for the All-Star Tournament. Anything that stood out to you?
For me:
The Guitar/Piano based speed-up music from late S24 (when the team captains made their pick).
Surprised Alan and Leonard didn’t get picked sooner. At least Austin with Leonard and Roger look awesome.
Feel free free to comment!

I am not surprised Ken chose Monica since she did knock him out on question four on 500 Questions back in 2016. I think what surprised me the most is when Matt was chosen to be on his team and I think the stats were enough for him to be drafted on Team Ken, as well as the fact that Jennifer was the last player to be drafted. It is definitely nice to see David Madden compete in a major tournament for $1,000,000.

My thoughts: Why can't Wheel ever do anything like this?  |

^ Because Wheel has too many contestants applying to be on Wheel of Fortune. Jeopardy requires actual knowledge, which I think fewer contestants will sign up for.

^ If Wheel ever does that kind of tournament (which will be never), stretching out for 2 weeks will be highly unlikely.
Also, Wheel stopped the returning champions thing in 1998, so the "one-time shot" existed for 20 years (plus an additional 6 counting the early nighttime shows).

Speaking of the JEOPARDY! Logo on Wheel, Ken Jennings got to spin the wheel via his Twitter.
