Craig told the host Ken Jennings On Friday, February 21, episode of Danger! That the show was responsible for the happiness of the couple.
“In the All-Star games I made contact with Julia Collins again,” he said. “I met her for the first time in New York about 10 years ago and we are married now.”
Jennings was ecstatic. “Wow, Danger Power pair! Congratulations! “He exclaimed.
Craig also said that the relationship is “the best thing ever happened to me.”
When asked why Collins was also not on the Invitational Tournament, Craig explained that she was unable to be present and go against him – still. “We would like that,” he went on. “She would like to have been here, but the logistics just didn’t work. So hopefully next time. “
Craig first appeared in the Show in 2010. He set a single record of $ 77,000 on the second day of his running, granting Jenning’s own single-day record of $ 75,000. After seven days in the show he lost to Jelisa Castrodale, but eventually earned $ 231,200.
Collins made her debut Danger! In 2014 and won more than $ 400,000 during a 20-day run from April 21 to May 30 of that year.
The headlines are absolutely happier news for Danger!. In November 2024 the show came under fire after participant Heather Ryan answered a sexist instruction. Ryan appeared on October 28, 2024, episode of the show and was confronted with an indication in the “Complete the Rhyming Expression” category … “With the text:” People rarely make fits … “
Ryan completed the sentence and answered with ‘girls wearing glasses’.
Jennings immediately apologized to Ryan, who was wearing glasses. In an interview published in the student newspaper of Binghamton University on November 4, Ryan said that the indication was ‘absolutely a strange choice’.
“I think it made everyone in the audience and on stage, and also Jennings, a little uncomfortable,” she said at the time. “It was like:” Oh, that was unexpected. “Maybe we opt for better rhyming sentences in 2024. Unfortunately, there are still girls who are that [in] Middle school and they don’t want to wear their glasses and they lose their education. So I think it is much better to see than something else. “
Ryan eventually became second during the game and lost $ 1 to Ian Taylor, a seller of food from Cleveland, Ohio. Despite the indication of controversy, she insured the newspaper: ‘I had a great time. Everyone there was very hospitable. “
