Dairy Jeopardy

How to play Dairy Jeopardy

 Preparations:

  • Select a moderator to read the Jeopardy-style answers listed below in the gameboard and determine if responses (given in the form of a question) are correct.

 To play:

  • Divide the group into three teams of equal size and have each team designate a spokesperson.  Draw straws or flip coins to determine starting order.
  • Have the first team pick a category, "Them Bones", "Nutrient Nuggets", and "Bovine Beauties" and point value.  Example, "I'll choose 'Them Bones' for 200 points.'"
    Read the Jeopardy-style answers, giving the team a set length of time to arrive at a response, with the spokesperson giving the response, in the form of a question.
  • If the response is correct, the team receives that number of points and the turn falls to the next team.  If the answer is incorrect, the next team is allowed the same amount of time to answer.  If all three teams are incorrect, the points are forfeited and the moderator should give and explain the correct response.
  • Continue the game until all 15 Jeopardy-style answers have been responded to.  The team with the most points wins!
