Jeopardy is a great game show to watch because you can learn so much about so many different topics all in one brief episode. It's the game show that gives you the answer and in order to win a cash amount you must provide the answer in the form of a question! The player at the end of Final Jeopardy with the most dollars on screen is the winner! I like this show because of the variety and strangeness of some of the topics and the strategy the players develop near the end to win!  I can answer some questions, but most of them I'd be lost at when trying to form the right question as an answer!

Throughout the shows extensive history there's been many times that East Texas or something dealing with East Texas has been right answer in the form of a question. I found a cool database at j-archive.com that has archived the answers that have appeared on the blue screens on the Jeopardy wall. I did a quick search for questions dealing with East Texas and found these questions!

How many of these answers can you form the right question to to win the dollar amount indicated? The topics from which the question comes from is listed in caps. The answers are at the bottom, but don't cheat and scroll their first!
