Pat Sajak trying to name the seven dwarfs was almost as funny as Bill
Rafferty trying to name the Presidents on "Card Sharks." "Well, there
was PHIL..."

Considering that Monday's Final Jeopardy! read:

"Its nickname..."

was anyone else surprised that they accepted Old Dominion as a
correct answer for Virginia.

Fortunately, the contestant would have ended up in third either
way, so the outcome was not affected by this, but the answer
clearly pointed to the *state* not the nickname. Isn't this
similar to other instances where an answer points to a city,
and a contestant is penalized for giving a state or country
instead?
