On msn.com, there is an article about the Top 10 game show winners of all time. It of course, describes Ken Jennings' little run on some quiz show, and even features an interview from the Perfesser (can you sense the excitement in my voice?!)

The article

And there's also a quiz that you can take as well.

Actually, I'm all alone in 9th place.  The tie is at 10th place.

I can't believe I'm doing this...

http://tvgameshows.net/winners.htm shows that Blonsky and Trela hold that position all by themselves with slightly over $1 million (Perhaps due to the ToC).

Blonsky and Trela did end up taking a risk between $2K-$32K in the TofC and ended up with $1000($500 each for them and their charities)
