The Brain Bus events at University of Denver and University of Colorado at Boulder will offer pre-testing and preliminary auditions for full-time college students with no previous bachelor's degree to qualify for the JEOPARDY! College Championship.

Students from colleges and universities around the country will participate in the 2008 College Championship. There is no guarantee that a DU or CU student will be selected for the Tournament.

Adults 18 and older are also welcome to pre-test and audition for regular shows.

The pre-test will be limited to the first 1,000 people in line at both events.

What is the Brain Bus?

The JEOPARDY! Brain Bus is a fun-filled event that offers prizes, personal appearances by the Clue Crew and even gives you the chance to try out for the show.

Eligible students or adults who pass the pre-test will be given a detailed invitation and appointment time to participate in the full audition process later that day, also held on campus.

For those not looking to compete on the show, but interested in winning prizes, the Brain Bus "Just For Fun" version of JEOPARDY! is for you. Complete with your favorite JEOPARDY! categories and the authentic signaling buttons, we encourage everyone to come by the event to play.
