The clue on Final Jeopardy yesterday combined horticulture and politics by asking what flower also shares a “disparaging” name with one sometimes applied to the political Left.
One contestant hit that hanging curveball out of the park:
Tonight's Final Jeopardy: the flower pictured here is also a disparaging term for the political left.
Contestant wrote "Pansy" ?— Chris Burke (@mrburkemath) October 24, 2015
Ouch! Here’s video:
