The Best Gift Ideas For Jeopardy Fans
Make it a True Daily Double with these unique gift ideas.

Jeopardy! — the quintessential trivia game show that swaps the question/answer format — has been around longer than many of us have been alive, going back to 1964. With that longevity have come generations of avid watchers, turning the late, great Alex Trebek into an icon and even making household names out of its winningest champions. But even with its fiercely loyal following, Jeopardy! gifts aren't necessarily an obvious choice when it comes to the holidays, making them the perfect option to surprise your loved ones.
Whether your favorite Jeopardy! fan likes to cheer on the contestants — like recent big-winner Matt Amodio or champion-turned-sometimes-host Ken Jennings — or simply show off their trivia smarts, there's something on this list for everyone. Here are 11 of the best gift ideas for the avid Jeopardy! viewers on your shopping list.
Half Truth Game From Ken Jennings
This trivia board game comes from the ultimate Jeopardy! champ himself, Ken Jennings, along with longtime game designer Richard Garfield. For ages 12 and up, Half Truth is billed as a perfect party game for teens, adults or families. With all players playing each question, betting on right answers vs. wrong answers, Half Truth is a great way to show off your trivia knowledge, but without requiring any.

What’s Matt Amodio Pillow
Prove that you're "in the know" with this pillow that references a more recent Jeopardy! champion, Matt Amodio. Amodio's 38-game streak ended in October, but as well as cracking the Top 5 with $1,518,601 in winnings, the contestant was more infamous in Jeopardy! lore for his strategic "What's ... ?" answering style. This textured Poly "Twill" pillow comes in five sizes, from 14 to 26 square inches.

Alex Trebek Funko Pop! Figure
It's been a rough year for Jeopardy! fans since Alex Trebek died. What better way to immortalize the longtime host than with this collectible Funko Pop! figure? Some lucky buyers might even receive the extremely limited chase variant, which features the Trebek of a previous era, with darker hair and full iconic mustache.

James Holzhauer Tote Bag
James Holzhauer may not have won as many games as Ken Jennings, but in 33 straight episodes, he kept coming up with new ways to display his name. This very sensible cotton tote bag pays homage to that creativity in three sizes, from 13 to 18 square inches. The double-sided design is also machine washable.
