Today\'s Final Jeopardy
 

Some of you may recall the Carnegie-Mellon student who wagered $1337 in final jeopardy, and see the obvious significance. Today he had the match equally well in hand and he wagered $1041.

What's the significance? I don't see that it spells anything. In upside-down speak of course it spells "lhol" but that is equally cryptic. It seems unlikely he wagered a random amount because of his choice last time.

Anyone have any idea what this means?

Actually, 1041 spells "loal", which is "lol" spelled phonetically.

I kind of buy this, but if he really wanted to do "lol" why didn't he just wager one hundred one?
