Do you know wherethe only international automotive underwater crossing is?

It's the Windsor-Detroit tunnel inWindsor, Ont., one of Canada's southernmost communities. It's one of two crossings linking the city with Detroit, Mich..

Windsor, and its tunnel got 15 seconds of fame on the Jeopardygame show Tuesday night as the answer to the $400 clue in the category called "Engineering Feats."

The question:'The world's only international automobile tunnel was completed in 1930 between Detroit and this Ontario city.'

After yelling out the answer at their TV sets, some Windsoritestook to Twitter.

Despite being at the heart of Canada's auto industry, apparently it took a game show to prove we 'made it.'

The question may have even prompted someone to move to Canada.

And this user showed the pride anyone has when they get a Jeopardyquestioncorrect whileintheir living room.

For now, this is the mostCanadian Jeopardy fans can do, since the game show has banned Canadians from entering.
