Does this count as meta-trivia?
Hm. Rummaging through my search logs again, I find that someone linked to my blog by searching for moops moors jeopardy. Of course, those of you who have seen the Seinfeld episode in question will know that the trivia game in which “Moors” was misprinted as “Moops” was actually Trivial Pursuit…
And even more inexplicably: site:zone38.net zone38.net. Eh?
Supposedly, the Seinfeld people got the idea from a real-life episode of Jeopardy in which the answer card had “Moops” written on it when the answer was “moors”. But I havent found any confirmation of that on the Internet so it might not be true.

It was the home game of Jeopardy. There is a scanned image here:
