The TV show Jeopardy posted to their social media pages Monday (April 4th) about a Peterborough teen's special visit to a taping of the iconic show.
Quinn Heffernan, 16, who is a Jeopardy "superfan"—he never misses a show and even watches old shows online in his free time—got to go on set thanks to the Sunshine Foundation of Canada.
"We had the pleasure of meeting a J! superfan thanks to the Sunshine Foundation of Canada. Quinn has extensive knowledge of Jeopardy!, and we were so happy..."
It was a bucket list moment for Quinn, a Grade 11 student at Holy Cross Secondary School who lives with a rare disorder known as hemiplegia. He got to fly to Los Angeles with his family and sit in on three tapings of his favourite show.
He even got to meet his idol and fellow Canadian Alex Trebek, which was posted about on Jeopardy'sFacebook page....
After the taping, Jeopardy spoke with Quinn to get a sense of his amazing experience...
