Re: [BigBrother_Survivor] 'The Amazing Race' Recap: First Fries to the Finish Line

 

I understand how Cody likes that he doesn't have to interact with others on this show, but you want to makes some friends before the U-turns start popping up!
I can see them being U-turned soon!

So was this exciting tonite? Should they have more
races like this head to head
race? I like the names given to these teams.
LOLMy pick still in it.

 
'The
Amazing Race' Recap: First Fries to the Finish
Line

The new season of The
Amazing Race is now officially in full swing as the
remaining ten teams continue their trek around the world.
The million-dollar prize is in their sights as they make
history for the long running franchise. For the first time,
the duos will compete head-to-head for a place at the mat
with Phil. What cultural shenanigans could they possibly
perform this time? 
 Kristi
of Team Extreme leans over the river complaining that she
needs to puke. To celebrate winning the first leg of the
race, they drank some of the "Black Death"
mentioned from the first episode and now it seems to be
coming back with a vengeance. Let's hope it doesn't
pose as an issue later on their journey to the next stop,
Amsterdam. 
Next Stop... Belgium
The
teams are all be on the same flight, leading to a foot race
as they touch down in Antwerp, Belgium. From here, they must
search for a chocolate shop for their next clue. At 9 a.m.
sharp, all of the teams rush into the shop, grab their clue
and head towards a Road Block. Winding roads turn into a
maze as they attempt to find a crane which will take the
competitors to new heights. One team member must climb a
ladder as the crane escalates higher into the sky, grab the
clue from the top and then make their way back down the
ladder before the crane retracts back to its original
position. 
Teams
Slam Dunk, Firefighters, Big Brother and Well Strung scale
the ladders and carry on to one of two Detours while the
remaining teams continue through the city maze, looking for
the crane. 
An Old World Concept
Team
Big Brother is the first to arrive at the printing press
Detour where they will copy their next clue letter by letter
and print them the old-fashioned way. Teams Slam Dunk,
Extreme, Firefighters, Ocean Rescue and Yale soon join them.
Meanwhile, Teams IndyCar, Goat Yoga and Chomp arrive at the
diamond Detour where they must grade and appraise various
cuts of diamonds. The printing press looks to be the easier
of the Detours as Teams Slam Dunk, Extreme and Big Brother
pull ahead in first through third places. From here, they
meet up in the square where Phil awaits them at the mat, but
marking their place in the race won't be that easy. They
must celebrate the birthplace of French fries by dressing up
in a costume, grabbing a cart full of the snacks and racing
around an obstacle course in various races against each team
head-to-head. 
Yep,
this is the first time the teams will fight for their spot
at the mat. Coming in first place is Cody for Team Big
Brother with an extra prize of $2,500 each. Team Slam Dunk
tag teams and awaits the next team to arrive to the mat for
another race. Slam Dunk comes in second place thanks to a
win against Team Yale. Now they must tag team and race
against Team Extreme for third place. Unfortunately, they
lose, and Team Extreme rounds out the top three. Seems her
bout with the "Black Death" didn't prove to be
an issue at all. Team Yale falls behind even further, losing
fourth place to Team Well Strung. 
Frazzled Fries
Teams
continue to make their way to the French fry race and each
time they trump Team Yale for their spot at the mat. Henry
and Evan of Team Yale sit in the middle of the obstacle
course, tired, five times defeated and dressed as overgrown
happy meal fries. It is quite the sad sight to
see. 
Wait!
A glimmer of hope as Team Goat Yoga lines up to race. Henry
pulls ahead to lead and keeps the lead. He runs up to the
finish line and.... he trips and falls on his face. Can he
pick his packages of fries up and cross the line before his
opponent catches up? Yes! Team Yale gets to the mat in 8th
place. 
Now
is the moment of truth. Teams Firefighters and Team Goat
Yoga must race for the last spot in The
Amazing Race. Whoever loses this race will be
eliminated. In the end, April just cannot compete. The
Firefighters finish in 9th place, rounding out the remaining
teams. Going home tonight is... Team Goat
Yoga. 
What
did you think of the first ever head-to-head competition?
Should the show implement more competitions like this one?
Or should they stick to the old way of things? Leave your
comments below and join the discussion!

Amazing Race airs Wednesdays on CBS at 8/7c. Want more? Like
