Amazing Race was quite exciting tonight. One of the contestants was almost thrown in jail. Bet you can't guess who!
For those who tape The Amazing Race, there are spoilers to follow.
We all have heard the term, "Ugly American" Well Colin is that personified. He is a complete ass.
Okay for those who DON"T watch here is a recap.
The teams had to take a taxi from the pit stop to the Kilimanjaro Airport which was 100 miles away. The taxi cost $100. First off Colin and his girlfriend, Christie tried to barter the driver down. That didn't work. They got in the taxi anyway and left.
Well along the way, Colin and Christie's team got passed by two other teams. This, of course, pissed Colin off cause his YELLING at HIS driver to go fast wasn't working. Go figure. Then a one of the tires on the taxi blew out. *insert evil giggle here* Colin then became furious to find out that the taxi was ALREADY running on the donut spare and that they didn't have ANOTHER spare to change the tire. Luckily for them, Karli and Kami were behind them and stopped (which they really didn't have to) and they used the spare from Karli and Kami's taxi to get them going again.
After arriving at the airport, Colin then tells the cab driver he is only going to pay him $50 of the $100 fair cause he said that the taxi was unsafe driving on 2 spare tires. The driver insisted they pay him the $100. Colin said, "You can take $50 or Nothing". The driver called the police into it. Colin then told the cop that he was not paying $100 and Colin said something to the effect, "You can bring the President of your country here, but I am not paying the $100. They then took him to the airport police station. Christie finally piped up saying this is such a waste of time coming over here, and Colin said (ready) Please stop making this worse! LOLOLOL She was making this worse. She who was standing there very embarrassed that he was acting this way. The police chief was called and when he got there, Colin again said he was NOT going to pay the $100 and said we have a plane to catch and started to walk out of the police station. WITHOUT PAYING THE DRIVER! What an idiot! The Police chief stopped him and told him the driver wanted to press criminal charges. Christie then begged Colin to pay the $100. At this time he threw the $100 on the floor and left saying we have a plane to catch.
That being bad enough but when they got back to the other teams he is telling the story about what happened and says, "Christie was freaking out"! What? This man needs help. And so does Christie if she stays with him. Yikes.
If you don't watch this show, it is bound to get good these last few weeks. So get to it.
ps To top it off Colin and Christie came in first for this leg of the race and won a trip. Life isn't fair.
Kami and Karli came in last at the pit stop. Non-elimination round so they just lost all their money but were not eliminated.

What's even worse is that Christie APOLOGIZED to Colin while they were at the airport! I mean what was THAT all about?? She's apologizing for 'freaking out' when all she did was tell the moron to just pay the driver (like he should have in the first place!)....Kim hit the nail on the head when she said "Colin's abusive." Amen, sister!
Didn't get to watch it, have it on tape but didn't stop me from reading your post - I am sooo bad! I heart Chip and Kim!
