Who is Andrew He? Let's re-meet the ‘Jeopardy!’ contestant.

Andrew and Amy faced off again in the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions. During the final Jeopardy! category, the clue was, "The Jan. 12, 1864, Washington Evening Star reported on a performance of this 'dashing comedy' to 'a full and delighted house.'" Andrew and Amy both wrote Our American Cousin. Since Amy was in the lead and with a big wager, she won again.
In May 2023, Andrew returned, ready to once again face off against his nemesis Amy. (OK, maybe we're being a little dramatic, but Jeopardy! Masters is a big deal.) As for who else came back to compete for the $500,000: Matt Amodio, Mattea Roach, Sam Buttrey, and James Holzhauer
