Schroon Lake And TV’s Jeopardy: A Love Affair!

Our beloved Schroon Lake was again featured last night on TV’s Jeopardy quiz show, just a few short months of its debut in June.
The above screen grab was captured by Schroon Laker and loyal Jeopardy fan Adam Friedman.
Adam tells us that the question which provided Schroon Lake (and Chautaugua Lake) as the answers came up in the Double Jeopardy Round under the category “States By Lake”.
The question was “What is New York?. Adam was able to capture the screen grab of the answer using his trusty TiVo.
We can only speculate as to why Schroon Lake has gotten two mentions this year on the top rated quiz show. The obvious one is that one of the producers has a strong connection to these parts. But is he or she a former camper, second home owner or day tripper who once stumbled upon our fair hamlet?.
Do you – dear Schroon Lake readers – have any intel or theories? Tell us in comments! And last night’s Schroon mention give us the chance to re-run our story about Schroon Lake’s various brushes with Hollywood.

I found an interesting fact: The Executive Producers name is Harry Friedman. Coincidence? Hmmm...... :0)
As a resident of SL since 1930, I am fascinated by the Jeopardy connection to SL. When it occured once, I was surprised. With this second occurance, I am very curious. Can someone come up with a connection? What's the next answer going to be???
