The Amazing Race 15: Finale: How Sweet the Sound!
I could not be more happy with the way Sunday’s finale turned out. I know last week I was rooting for Ericka and Brian but woah did I do a quick turn around at the Cirque de Soliel challenge. What is wrong with Ericka? She completely lost it and lost it big time. I was hoping they never finished the challenge and Phil would have to come find them there hours after the finale and tell them it was over. They were an annoying couple from the get go but I like underdogs so I was on their side last week but that is over. Allegiances switched.
When Meghan and Cheyne went to the wrong hotel I was freaking out. I needed them to win. They just had to. The brothers couldn’t win. It would have killed me. Thank goodness they got turned back around and in the end won. I totally agree that they were the best team throughout the race so they deserve to win. I still don’t like them but they beat out the brothers so they’re good in my book.
Can we talk for just a second about scaling that building face down? That is one of the only challenges that I honestly don’t think I could have done. Backwards, yes but face down? Yikes.
Well, another season is over and it was a thrilling ride. I still miss the Globtrotters and the Poker Players and Zev and Justin. I can’t wait until next season.
I’m pretty sure this ended the way all you wanted it to but just in case, are you happy with the results?

I was okay with anybody but the brothers winning so I was happy, and not super surprised considering how many times they came in first, that Meghan and Cheyne won. And Ericka was out of control crazy, with all her shrieking and changing her mind. “Put me down!!” “Put me up!!” The way she screamed at the workers on the stage was downright embarrassing… Poor Brian. I loved him but couldn’t stand that diva wife of his.

Halle-freaking-lujah!!
I thought from the beginning they had it… until the wrong hotel. Oh man, I was so scared the brothers were going to win!
And, yes… as soon as Ericka lost her lead, she lost her mind too! Seriously, her mom should be giving Brian props for being married to her now! And I knew they couldn’t win… but I definitely didn’t think they deserved it after that.
SO happy with the results. The fact that Meghan and Cheyne were the only team to count their chips correctly the FIRST time made me that much happier, because they DESERVED it! Yay!!!
(Would have LOVED to see the Globetrotters in the finale…)
And did you see that Ericka and Brian started the last leg 3 hours after Meghan and Cheyne… I wonder by how much the Globetrotters lost that leg.
