Amazing Race fans ready? Let's GO!
Teams are running all over from place to place picking up clues. They have to go to San Diego for one (not California) and to the catacombs.
Detour - Tickets -- collecting tickets on a bus. Tejo has them throw a disk rock thing on some sort of bang type fireworks dohickey. It's kind of like cornhole with a bang. (No, that's not how Phil explained it.)
Dana and Matt continue to be the only team arguing. Sigh. Oh geez ... the alpha male team, Kurt and Brodie, actually chest bump.
Gah. One of the women on one of the female teams (the one whose person was claustrophobic during the prior cave challenge) is about to go into a full-burst anxiety attack in the catacombs. It's Jessica and Brittany -- not sure which girl it is, though.
The alpha boys get to the Roadblock first. "Who's left holding the bag?" They have to find bags by the same designer as one given to them, searching a gazillion bags and several vendors.
Kurt and Brodie are headed to the Pit Stop.
Pit Stop:
1. Kurt and Brodie - won a trip to Greece
2. Tyler and Korey
Oh noes! Rachel counted the bus money wrong. She and Zach have to go back and finish that Detour.
3. Burnie and Ashley
4. Dana and Matt (He thinks they need to work together better. Y[think?)
Jessica is trying to help Cole on the Roadblock even though she's ready for the next clue. Finally she leaves him be. Rachel and Zach finally finished the Detour.
5. Jessica and Brittany
6. Sheri and Cole
7. Erin and Joslyn
8. Scott and Blair
9. Zach and Rachel
10. Darius and Cameron -- Philiminated.
Really nice guys, but The Amazing Race isn't their strength!
Mouse in the house! Hey Jackie
ReplyDeleteHey, mouse!
ReplyDeleteHi Mouse! Hi Jackie! Thank you for hosting us! Appreciate it greatly!
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie and mouse. I brought grilled shrimp and hush puppies. Dig in
ReplyDeleteHey Penny, Monty!
ReplyDeleteHey Penny
ReplyDeleteHey, Monty and Penny!
ReplyDeleteThat looks fun.
ReplyDeleteEww, a rat. That would creep me out.
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie, Penny, Monty, mouse, and everyone else who shows up. =)
ReplyDeleteThey really need to move this from Friday night.
Yup
DeleteJust like caps. LOL
ReplyDeleteCornhole only with rocks and bombs, lol
ReplyDeleteHi David, I agree. I preferred it on Sunday night.
ReplyDeleteHi Everyone!
ReplyDeleteMy guys Kurt & Brodie aced that rock throw!
Hi Monty and David!
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for my girls.
ReplyDeleteI agree Monty, this time of the year Sundays would be much better!
ReplyDeleteHomie!!
ReplyDeleteI can sympathize with her. I don't like anything that tightly closed in.
ReplyDeleteHi Ed. =) Goooo Alpha males (as Jackie is calling them) lol
ReplyDeleteHey 'Home Gal' ^5
ReplyDeleteYes! I used to have to tape in on Sundays (because of bowling league) but I have Sundays free now. Much better than Friday.
ReplyDeleteHey, Jackie and everyone. Better late than never.
ReplyDeleteWelcome David, Ed and Becky
ReplyDeletePenny, I've never been claustrophobic but I know people who are and panic attacks are horrible. I used to have them when I flew. Thank God I eventually got over that.
ReplyDeleteHey David! Yes our guys are showing their competitive juices! Jackies description of Alpha males would be apropos
ReplyDeleteHere they go again...arguing!
ReplyDeleteHi Becky. Grab some shrimp and hush puppies.
ReplyDeleteHi Mouse!
ReplyDeleteWith the demise of American Idol coming, networks will be looking to Tuesdays again for what to air. They should move TAR to Tuesdays.
ReplyDeleteHe's doing this wrong. It's by the designer, they don't have to look alike.
ReplyDeleteThat would be okay too, David.
ReplyDeleteLOL, most guys are not known for their fashion sense. Could be tough on them if they don't figure it out.
ReplyDeleteI hope they find someone. I'd hate to see them leave. Come on!!
ReplyDeleteGood way to get the pesos, LOL
ReplyDeleteSpeaking Spanish should be an advantage
ReplyDeleteyay for Brittany and Jessica
ReplyDeleteThey need to realize it has to be by the same designer, NOT the same design. LOL
ReplyDeleteWay to go team David and Ed!! Woohoo
ReplyDeleteKurt & Brodie....numero uno!!
ReplyDeleteSeems like a ridiculously short leg.
ReplyDeleteSomething's up, unless some of the teams take a long, long time?
ReplyDeleteBecky, have to tell you that I went grocery shopping last night and had to get a pie to bake, lol. I settled on Marie Callender's Dutch Apple.
ReplyDeletelol, go Kurt and Brodie. Still half the show to go. Something must happen to extend this.
ReplyDeleteStill, no flights, no trains or long car rides or lengthy challenges. Seems odd.
ReplyDeleteOh no! That's horrible for them.
ReplyDeleteI think maybe because it's the first time the show has been to Columbia, they might be overdoing it there a bit.
ReplyDeleteMouse, there might be contestants who take a long time to get a task done. That's the only thing I can think of what's happening.
ReplyDeleteUh oh! Mis-count on the pesos......gotta go back
ReplyDeleteBut they set the pitstops up in advance
ReplyDeleteSomething must be up, then.
ReplyDeleteI like that they're being helpful but they need to get checked in!
ReplyDelete5th again. I'll take it
ReplyDeleteDarn, I hate to see either of these teams eliminated. That's sad. Hopefully, something's up.
ReplyDeleteCome on Cole and Sheri.
ReplyDeleteMan, this challenge is stumping most of them.
ReplyDeleteLot of help between teams tonight!
ReplyDeleteThe other teams just got it much faster
ReplyDeleteOh nos
ReplyDeleteOMGosh, that was mean.
ReplyDeleteDog eat dog, I guess.
ReplyDeleteEd, I noticed the same thing.
ReplyDeleteIs that a new voice for the gnome?
ReplyDeleteBecky, my pie comes out of the oven right after the show. If we hadn't talked about it Wednesday night, I would have never thought of it this shopping trip. Yummy
ReplyDeleteGood, Monty. Next week you can bake one for the group. Or, better yet, two so we can have a larger slice.
ReplyDeleteThese poor guys. Darn
ReplyDeleteI hate this for the brothers
ReplyDeleteThey can not be that clueless!!! Can they?
ReplyDeleteYes, Becky. I bought two last night. A dutch apple and a lattice cherry :)))
ReplyDeleteOh, Crap!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's a non-elimination?
ReplyDeleteCrap. That's sad. These poor guys. Darn it! Didn't they help people? Very sad.
ReplyDeleteDang, didn't they say they were Mensa members? I guess book smarts not street smarts.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie. Sent y'all Wednesday
ReplyDeleteI hate to see them lose but I am glad that Zack and Rachel (??) were safe. Jackie, thank you for hosting. See you next week.
ReplyDeleteDang!! Hate this. Thanks Jackie and everyone for the company. Have a great weekend and will see you all Wednesday. Now to get that pie out of the oven and let it cool. Thanks again Becky :)))
ReplyDeleteWell, Karma has a bad way of coming back to bite you. LOL
ReplyDeleteJackie, thank you so much for hosting us. Will see most everyone next Wednesday; and so far, here next Friday!
Have a nice weekend, everyone.
G'Night All! Have a Great Weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie!!
They seemed like really nice guys and their parents did a good job raising them. But, TAR isn't their thing, I don't think!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie -)
ReplyDeleteEveryone have a great weekend.
Thanks for coming by!
