Long went on to reflect the importance of his Jeopardy! success and hopes he can inspire others trying to break out of the box society put them in. "I feel like this thing that just happened is proof that you can. Trust yourself, hold on to your dreams, you know who you really are," Long wrote. "Take your shot, and don't let anybody tell you you can't do this or that, or you should be doing things a certain way. As my grandmom would've said, never let ANYBODY steal your shine. Much love to everybody. See you in the fall."

Long told Jeopardy! he has no plans to change his life, despite the six-figure victory. "I'm going to be the same. Whatever circumstances, I am who I am," he said. "But it's definitely going to change the quality of my life."

What a great run! I’m gonna miss watching him. He’s a “regular guy” and very humble. It’s been a pleasure to watch him win big!

In all our years watching Jeopardy, (and I watched Art Fleming) my hubs and I never rooted for anyone as much as Ryan Long.
