- Andy Bockelman: The anxious moments of my ‘Jeopardy’ tryout
- June 15, 2011
- What is a dream? For some people that may be a question, but for me it’s the answer, or at least the way it has to be phrased. Allow me to elaborate. For as long as I can remember, I have had a knack for retaining trivia tidbits, layer upon layer of informational items that are useful to some depending on how just how much you need to know about a given subject. Growing up, much of my knowledge wasn’t something that was likely to turn a profit, as I had yet to see a booth at career day for people who specialized in lyrics to “Weird Al” Yankovic songs, vintage Nintendo games or “Seinfeld” catchphrases. But, once I hit my sophomore year at Moffat County High School, one thing led to another, yadda-yadda-yadda, and then I was part of the school’s Knowledge Bowl team.
