Roy to speak for first time to press about tiger attack
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"That's been the remarkable part of this thing," said Jason Raff, the show's executive producer and director. "He really let us in to see the good days and bad days. I believe they gave us an unprecedented look."
LAS VEGAS - Rey Horn has never spoken publicly about the incident in which a 380-pound white tiger named Montecore nearly mauled him to death.
So when NBC airs the special "Siegfried & Roy: The Miracle" at 9 p.m. EDT Sept. 15, viewers will hear Horn for the first time and see his battle to regain his motor skills after the tiger attack — and subsequent debilitating stroke — left him in a wheelchair.
In his own words, Raff said. Horn will attempt to answer what happened that terrifying night during a live performance at The Mirage hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip. He'll be

hary.
Raff told The Associated Press he's not going to reveal what Horn had to say.
"That I'm going to save for the special," Raff said. "That's his thing. He wants to say it himself."
But viewers shouldn't expect the definitive account.
"We will offer a very thorough look," Raff said. "Will we answer every question? No. We will not answer every question."
As Shriver noted in an interview with the AP, "No one is 100 percent sure what happened that night."
The special probably won't include the closely guarded footage of the Oct. 3 accident that was taped by Feld Entertainment, the company that produced the wildly popular Siegfried & Roy show.
Feld officials have refused to turn over the video to investigators from the Agriculture Department, the federal agency responsible for looking into such incidents, saying it "would quickly end up in the hands of media who would then sensationalize this horrible tragedy."
Raff said he pieced together the events leading up to the mauling and the dramatic days that came after it.

Trivia phenom wins again
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK - "Jeopardy!" master Ken Jennings has advanced his winning streak to 39, picking up another $10,001 and bringing his total money won to $1,331,661.
The Salt Lake City software engineer became an unlikely TV star this summer when he began mowing down opponents on the quiz show. He won 38 straight games before the show went on hiatus in late July. The new season began Monday.
"It's starting to be a lot of money," Jennings said midway through the show.
Jennings wagered $21,599 in Final Jeopardy, incorrectly guessing "Captain Marvel." The correct answer was "What is Classic Comics?"

The Final Jeopardy question
"jeopardy!" limited its champions to five appearances before changing its rules a year ago, allowing a winner to keep competing until beaten.
Nobody expected the Jennings juggernaut. The 30-year-old has displayed a quick finger on the buzzer that frequently freezes out his opponents and an impressively broad array of knowledge.
"jeopardy!" will air two more weeks of original episodes, which began taping in August, before leaving on another hiatus for a special tournament.
If Jennings keeps winning, he'll keep coming back. Game spokesman Jeff Ritter said there's been no discussion of a cutoff point, or another change in the rule, if Jennings' streak continues.
