The clue read, “This musical touring behemoth has a devoted fan base of followers called Phans,” with the answer of course being Phish.Â

Jam bands have popped up occasionally on the program, including a reference to Widespread Panic last year. If the hippie on Jeopardy’s writing staff is reading this, then keep up the good work!
