Tournament of Champions[]
In the third quarterfinal game, he faced 4-time champion Jason Richards and 5-time champion Kerry Breitenbach. He answered twenty-three responses (including all three DDs) and two wrong. His near-runaway performance was enough to send him straight to the semifinals.
In the first semifinal game, he faced 5-time champion Bob Mesko and 3-time champion Aaron Thompson. Vik struggled to catch up to his opponents throughout the entire episode. However, in FJ!, he was the only person to get his answer right, and it was enough to send him to the finals.
In the final matchups, he faced four-time champion Bill MacDonald and three-time champion Michael Falk. Vik had an impressive first game, banking an astounding $30,800 going into game two. However, on the second day of the finals, he was not able to replicate his stellar performances in previous games, losing everything, getting his FJ! answer wrong, and coming in second place.
