The Biggest Upsets In TAR History.
« on: April 20, 2016, 12:39:05 AM »
What were the biggest upsets in TAR history in which an unexpected underdog took down a huge race favorite (doesn't have to be a finale).  Some most well known examples were:

TAR 21 Finale - Josh and Brent upset over Jaymes and James and Trey and Lexi. 

TAR 25 Finale - Amy and Maya upset over Misti and Jim and Adam and Bethany. 

TAR 7 Finale - Uchenna and Joyce upset over Rob and Amber.

TAR 19 Final 4 - Ernie and Cindy, Amani and Marcus, and Jeremy and Sandy upset over Andy and Tommy.

TAR 11 Final 8 - Charla and Mirna upset over Rob and Amber.

TAR2's finish line foot race between Chris & Alex and Tara & Wil is one of the greatest instances. Though the friends weren't exactly under dogs and the separated couple weren't very well liked, it is definitely a giant upset.

Also-
TAR12 Final 11 - Ari & Staella vs. everyone and every other donkey. :funny:

It took me a lot of time to think of one.

TAR16: Dan & Jordan beat Jet & Cord to the finish, since the former had a certain flight advantage.

I think Sheri & Cole beating Burnie & Ashley and Brodie & Kurt to the finale is considered?

Flo & Zach win TAR3 after the Flo's infamous meltdown on the second Vietnam leg.
