Ilia was an answer on Jeopardy! tonight. How cool!

You know you've made it when you're a clue on Jeopardy!

And the contestant got it right! 'What is the QuadG0d?'

I also love that both Ilia and Alysa each got their own Fortnite emote! That must be an especially huge deal for Ilia who is a big gaming fan of that platform (going by his earlier Instagram posts).

You know you've made it when you're a clue on Jeopardy!

And you know you've really hit the cultural mainstream when your nickname is so well known that it is considered easy and only warrants being the $200 answer!

"It was so much pressure": Ilia Malinin reflects on his Olympic experience, revels in a "completely different vibe" post-season - Exclusive​

Good interview. It looks like Ilia may be 'taking a break' from competition this coming season, though it doesn't sound like he's even thinking about retirement. Just a break.
