There's a similar story about Dr. Joyce Brothers winning the grand prize on "The $64,000 Question" by agreeing to choose "Boxing" as her category and then doing a lot of studying. (As it turns out, "Boxing" was a narrow enough category that one person really could learn pretty much everything that a game show could ask about it.)
