"The tournament involved 145 contestants, all of whom were winners of past tournaments or past five-time champions, and was designed to produce two contestants who would face off in a three-game, cumulative-score final against Ken Jennings, who had won the most money in Jeopardy! regular play history"see related linkThe selection criteria does not mean that there could not be reasons the contestant was not on the show. Health, career and a wide range of reasons could prevent a contestant from appearing in the tournament and the 145 is the number who were contestants not the number selected by Jeopardy.

For the show here's a quote about the audition from a winning contestant. Finally, last June, I found myself in a hotel conference room in downtown Chicago, joined by 20 or so other would-be contestants, among them lawyers and schoolteachers. All were dressed as if for job interviews. Some, having tried out before, were chummy with the Jeopardy! staffers, who distributed official Jeopardy! click pens, perfect for practicing buzzer technique. Jeopardy is a Multi million if not billion dollar business where everything decided by the professionals that chose you is about how it will effect the show and the viewers. They give a five minute break between shows as they tape the five shows each day. They are professionals that make sure they have had extra contestants show up for the day's taping. Because so many things could happen during the day's taping and they could need another contestant. If your appearance will hurt the show you will not be told to change, you'll just be an extra contestant that they had show up.
No...but they had a five game losing streak.
That depends on the rodeo itself. Kids can be as young as five to enter some rodeo competitions like sheep-riding or wild-pony-catching. Junior rodeos allows contestants to be as young as ten or twelve to enter competitions. Non-junior rodeos allow for contestants to be at least 16 to 18 years of age to enter.

five questions in each of the six categories for each round
Technically none, as the jeopardy screen is a screen of answers. The players of the game provide the question to that answer. This is why all responses must be phrased as a question or points are not awarded.Another answer: The first round of Jeopardy has six categories, with five clues in each category. Therefore, there are 30 clues, each of which must be responded to in the form of a question.
Five ?
