Most Embarrassing Moments
« on: June 23, 2016, 01:31:32 PM »
Throughout 28 seasons and counting, we have seen teams do the greatest things, humble upon some of the most tear-jerking, suffer through intense and stressful scenarios, and apply themselves in a bit of lighthearted humor or crazy antics. Though, what is The Amazing Race without some appreciation for the many times teams turned vermilion in the face or had unnecessary urges? What were some of the most embarrassing TAR moments you have ever watched of teams?

Just to get it started :inocent::
•(TAR6) When Adam became a buoy :funny:

•(TAR10) When Dustin landed on her cheeks in the Finnish mud Detour
•(TAR12) When Don became Tarzan
Show content

•(TAR13) When Andrew couldn't march

•(TAR16) When Steve & Allie became painting contractors in Valparaíso
•(TAR22) When Jessica & John refused their Express Pass even in dead last
•(TAR25) When Nici decided to do whatever it took to number one
Show content

I hope this didn't bring back any bad memories. Truly sorry if I did.

Teams walking right past clueboxes, the ones I remember right now being Nick & Vicki and Bill & Cathi :lol:

Also the geography fail moments, like "Isn't Amsterdam and Rotterdam the same city?" in S27 or "Abu Dubai" by Ally & Ashley.

Season 6: Jonathan abusive and very defensive behavior towards Victoria.

Season 14: Kisha & Jen messing up the Chinese Food ordering task, the English translations are funny. One of the orders was New Taste Beef and they said "Oil Comes Again To Please The Mouth"

A lot of items on the list above aren't even 'embarrassing'... just shameful and probably something teams would want to move on from after the Race.

And Shelley was being super passive aggressive and could of cost them the race just to "prove a point"

Beauty Queens do not what country "London" is in  :funny:

This one's actually a misconception. D&K were surprised when the ticket agent told them they had to fly from Kuwait to London before basically turning around and going south to Mauritius. They were wondering if perhaps there's a different London in the world more close by, or if they had misheard the agent, so they asked what country he was talking about just to be sure. You can hear one of them go, "Yeah, see?" after he says England, which basically means "He IS talking about London England, that's weird."
Come check out the Reality Fan Wiki! The LARGEST Amazing Race database on the internet!!! (probably)
