J! Archive - Al Lin

	A law professor from Davis, California... Al Lin
Date of first appearance: 1993 Total winnings: $58,903 Stats: 5-time champ Favorite anecdote: Went to bar with friend to watch one episode (in which I was appearing), and caused other bar patrons to do double take trying to figure out if I was the same guy as on the TV monitor. Did being on Jeopardy! have any effect on your life? Helped me to avoid heavy student debt, which enabled me to work for US Dept. of Justice without worrying about paying off loans. Did you do anything crazy with your winnings? Not really--spent most of it on graduate school tuition at Harvard--which some might say is a little crazy... Is there anything else you would like viewers to know about you? Avid hiker--goal is to hike in every national park.
