Ken Jennings Turns Father–Son MLB Ballpark Tour Into New Trivia Study

The Jeopardy! host says the trip helps him stock fresh ballpark facts.

Overview

  • Jennings said in interviews published Sunday that he is visiting every Major League Baseball park with his son Dylan.
  • He explained that the tour has him learning stadium details, pointing to the fountains and waterfalls at Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium as an example.
  • He joked that hosting Jeopardy! gives him a parenting edge because his kids accept his guidance more readily, which he said frustrates his wife Mindy.
  • He added that Dylan is skilled at trivia but does not plan to go on Jeopardy!, preferring not to step into what Jennings called his own domain.
  • At the TCM Classic Film Festival on April 30, he highlighted movies as a strong category and credited Leonard Maltin’s Movie Guide for his film know‑how.
