Ever want to travel around the world? Me too. But I am afraid this may be the closest I get to doing it. Watching Amazing Race.
I fell in love with this reality show during the first season and have watched it for the past 4 seasons. My brother-in-law and I even jokingly talked about sending in an audition tape. Hubby and I would probably kill each other before the trip was over, but B-I-L and I would probably get along well together. Only one drawback. He HATES (is scared to death) to fly. So no audition tape was ever made.
So instead we are having a Amazing Race Pool. Cost $2. (I know we are big time gamblers but the kiddies are involved too) The way it works is:
You must guess the order in which each team will finish. You will receive 1
point for each position you are off by. For example, if you pick a team to finish 7th and they finish in 3rd place, you get 4
points.............POINTS ARE BAD!!!!!!!!!
The person with the fewest points at the end of the race is the winner!!!
You could go to the website and check out the bios and make your decision from there.
Here are my choices.
1. Colin and Christie
2. Brandon and Nicole
3. Chip and Kim
4. Charla and Mirna
5. Allison and Donny
6. Dennis and Erika
7. Kami and Karli
8. Bob and Joyce
9. Marshal and Lance
10. Linda and Karen
11. Jim and Marsha
I also have entered the dogs and cat in this so they have their own choices. I am taking the money out of their food allowance. :)
Anyone want to play along? Leave your choices in the comment section. Maybe I will even have a prize for the winner. Nothing big but I bet I can come up with something. Come on! You know you want to!
I love that show, have watched it from the first and even submitted an audition tape and questionairre for season 3..they didn't pick us - they lost out. We would have kicked ass!
I'm not much into reality tv, but if I was...this would be the show I'd watch. Because it isn't stationary in one place. They are constantly on the move and facing new challenges every day.
