Amazing Race: "Where's Garden Bridge?! I have to Pee!"
This was easily my favorite episode of the Amazing Race this season. Let's attack this in bullet points:
- How many times did they say "Garden Bridge" at the beginning of this episode? I'm gonna guess 50. Seriously shut up about the Garden Bridge.
- I hate Team Bros. I love watching them panic when looking for Garden Bridges, but watching them lose their mother effin' minds in the backs of taxi cabs is like the best thing ever. If that piece of plexi glass wasn't between them and their cab driver, they would have torn him apart with their teeth. Was that the biggest freak out in AR history?
- Team Bro, says "Bro" more than a whole Fraternity Row. I hate those guys.
- Team Bro made a smart move, they realized that they were so dumb that they couldn't find a garden bridge by themselves. They went back and teamed up with the detectives. The detectives led them to two jackets hanging on a street sign. So funny.
- Counting Buddha statues seemed like it would be hard but if these teams can do it, then it can't be that hard.
- I liked watching the guys riding behind the motorcycle driver, all of them were so scared to wrap their arms around the driver except gay Team Bro. The other "straight" brother trying to pick up a Chinese girl wasn't fooling anybody.
- At the beginning of this episode I started thinking that I wanted the Beauty Queen to win this whole race, because it would show all these other teams how dumb they are and how much they suck. That changed.
- I was so angry with Beauty Queen when she wouldn't let her boyfriend Brent urinate. She just kept telling him to hold it, she had zero empathy. You don't mess with somebody that needs to piss, that's cruel. Seriously, F her.
- I liked how Team Cowboys want to make belt buckles that say " Amazing Race Champions".
- You know how Phil stood waiting for teams with the tallest man in the world? The tallest man in the world had to use crutches to stand. How bad did you feel that he had to stand there all day probably in pain for these dumb ass teams?
- I actually started liking the Detectives towards the end of the season, but I think I'll enjoy watching Team Bro kill a cab driver in the season finale.

Schadenfeude...
…rooting for a taxi cab to cost Team Bro the race. Oh, I will have such joy in seeing them snap in a taxi. It’ll the best moment of the entire season.
"Lord, beer me strength."
Team Detectives
How much crap do you think they’re getting back on the job?
Using a mini flashlight in the stamp challenge? Come on CSI…really?
And the line about, “I have binoculars, so I can spot a bridge from up top” was killing me.
Missing the two statues because they didn’t read the clue was classic too.
I agree about the Garden Bridge and all I could think about after hearing it 50 times was this:

Don't hate the game, hate the nerds!
The taxi bros drove me crazy
Especially when they lost sight of the cop’s cab. They were ready to lay down and die. Umm, guys, you could also call that translation service if you lose track of the cops.
I think I’ll have my wife pre-watch the final just in case the models win it, because I don’t think my psyche could handle that. Just picturing her talking about how everyone thinks she’s ignorant, and proving them wrong makes me ill. We don’t think you’re ignorant. Ignorance can be cured. You are stupid, and you just can’t fix stupid.
On that note, it would be almost as bad to see the brothers talking about how they set off to achieve Jordan’s dream and blah blah blah.
You think model-boy peed on her toothbrush at the hotel that night? I so would’ve. That would be the kind of thing you could keep to yourself until she ultimately leaves you for some richer dumbass, then you could spring it on her. Of course you’d have to start an argument about something else so you didn’t have to kiss her for a while.
Go Cowboys! It’s commemorative belt buckle time!
"And now for something completely different"
I really really really hope the cowboys win.
None of the other teams deserve it. And I’m pretty sure that if model girl had to go to the bathroom she would have dragged her partner out of there. .
I loved it when the one cop turns around in the cab and says “Well there not behind us anymore.” That was hilarious.
This is an environment of welcoming, and you should just get the hell outta here.
When you see a taxi cab with a protective shell for the driver
Maybe you should just opt to not flip out and lash around violently.
Love Beauty Queen talking about how she’s going to prove everyone wrong by counting, and as soon as it got difficult she messed up.
The unanswered question: WHAT WERE THOSE COATS DOING HANGING ON THE HIGHWAY?

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔

I was wondering the same thing
The coats were quite mysterious. I was actually expecting a trap to fall down on them the second they got near them and then have the detectives and brothers be sold on the black market as sex slaves.

Although it was odd
..when has Amazing Race ever marked something with an “odd” marker..it’s always the AR flag and/or colors.
I loved how they were over doing the Detective stuff….“hey, there’s a road..which is like a bridge..and there are two coats hanging on it..that’s just too weird to not be it”
Don't hate the game, hate the nerds!
