Yes, but wikipedia also happened to be correct in that Dan and Jordan would win s16, with Cowboys and Brent and Caite coming in 2nd and 3rd (This was before the season even aired the first episode)
Also, preseason to TAR 17, wikipedia also said that Jill and Thomas/ Brook and Claire/ Nat and Kat would win.
I know anyone can edit it, but for some reason I believe it.

During this season, I remember during the leg Michael & Kevin got eliminated, I was constantly checking Wikipedia to find out the results, since I had no access to TV during that period. Just when the Episode started being shown in the US, they were already being updated with "eager fans" putting Michael & Kevin in first and under Leg 12, "FTW" only for it to be removed seconds later. So I think it would be some fans editing it as they wish or they think it would end up in. So I think it's best to take it with a grain of salt.

--- Quote from: jayhawk on December 10, 2010, 01:30:30 PM ---Hello -- Joining in to say that I personally do not trust anything Phil says in his interviews about the finale. Last season he specifically said that the lead would change a few times. I was somewhat comforted by this and stopped worrying about the sepeculation (which turned out as expected) that the brothers got out of the airport first. I allowed myself to believe that the cowboys must have overtook them at some point, even if the winner was still in doubt. So I watched the entire show waiting for a lead change that NEVER CAME. The brothers got out of the airport first and stayed in front the whole damn time. Now he's again saying the lead changes. He may very well be telling the truth but he lost me last season. I love Phil but I don't pay any attention to what he says.

Welcome to RFF, jayhawk!
I don't remember Phil every saying that last year, just that some people would be disappointed by the outcome. He is just trying to market the show though so those interviews are almost the same as the promos we see.

I remember what jayhawk mentioned because it messed up my final prediction despite knowing about the 30-minute customs lead. I posted that I hoped that Phil wasn't hyperbolizing about the finale at the time, and he totally lied about the TAR16 finale.
Phil must have been watching something else because "Teams pass each other back and forth all the way to the finish line," and "Just when you think you have worked out who is going to win, another team miraculously makes up the lost ground" never happened in the TAR16 finale; one team was in first place the entire leg after the plane touched down.
(It took me forever to find the article because I kept searching for text, when it was, in fact, a scanned image from TV Guide by puddin: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,21836.msg517687.html#msg517687)

And of course Bob Eubanks has hosted many more times in the past, not just in 2010.
Cocoa:
Hmm. I think the host has nothing to do with the Rose Parade. They are separate challenges.
I wish Jeff Probst is the host. I know, game show. But survivor is a game, therefore it is a game show. And thus, Jeff Probst is qualified. :lol:
DrRox:
I can see Barker or Eubanks handing out the clue after they finish with the parade float......similiar to Wayne Newton in Vegas in TAR 15......just a thought. I was thinking of maybe Pat Sajak....but he doesnt appear to ever had any connection with the Rose Parade.
