An attorney from Baltimore, Maryland...

Brad Plovan

Date of First Appearance:
November 1995

Total Winnings:
$62,401 ($1,000 for appearing in the ToC)

Records/Stats:
5-Time Champion; came from behind 3 times; 5 truly uninspiring interview segments.

Anecdote:
I was on my first date with my wife at this very popular Afghan restaurant in Baltimore. After finishing our aushak and kaddo borawni appetizers, the conversation lulled for a little. Thinking quickly, I used the only sure fire conversation starter I had--Jeopardy! I smoothly mentioned that my best conversation starter was that I was on Jeopardy! Amazingly enough, this display of suavity did not cause her to duck my calls and we were married last September.

What I did with my winnings:
I bought a 100-year-old house in Baltimore city and am almost done renovating it.

Anything else:
I am really not as hopeless as I seemed on TV.
