The ‘Amazing Race’ Season 21 Finale

The most unlikely of finishes tonight for Season 21 of The Amazing Race. The final four teams featured the twins Natalie and Naydia, the Texans Lexi and Terri, the Chippendales James and Jaymes, and the goat farmers Josh and Brent. The twins were eliminated from the race in the first hour. The second hour of the season finale and the final leg had the top 3 teams traveling from Spain to New York City, racing to the big finish.

The hateful twins played a dirty game and I've never been so happy to see a team eliminated before the final leg of the race. Earlier in the season, one team accidentally left their money out and the twins knowing how challenged that team would be without the money, stole it. Their dirty play continued in their pursuit to convince others to turn on other players. It was good to see their style of play not work in the race.

All along in the race I felt the Texans, the Chippendales and to a degree the twins would be the final 3 in the race. I was surprised to see Josh and Brent make the cut. This team hung on by thread the entire race, barely escaping elimination week after week. In comparison, the other teams won different legs of the race and they showed strengths needed to win it all.

It was the ultimate underdog story in the end which leaves you cheering. It was a story of overcoming the odds and never giving up, coming out the winner, the champ. This is the story of Josh and Brent, winners of the Amazing Race and $1 million!

Another great season from the multi Emmy Award winning reality show! I've been watching, and I think it's about time I audition to compete! Don't you think it would be a ton of fun racing around the world?!
