Congrats guys!! Well deserved!  :trampb: :cheer:

Prophet:
Congrats to Kelsey and Joey!

I think all in all, they were the team with the best relationship with each other and best communication. They deserved it.

Your cab knowledge sounds extensive — have you always been big fans of the show?
Joey: Justin’s not the only superfan, we want to make that very clear! Everybody might think he’s the only one who’s ever seen the show before. Kelsey is major. I’ve watched The Amazing Race every season, but…

Kelsey: I’ve been watching it since season 1, episode 1, as it aired on TV. The Amazing Race is the family show we sat down to watch together every week. And it’s been on so long, I grew up with my parents saying, “You need to learn how to drive a stick shift for The Amazing Race, you need to learn another language for The Amazing Race,” never thinking I’d actually be on the show. So for it to actually come true, and then to win it… oh my gosh, I can’t wait to see their faces tonight.

Joey: And we never thought we’d get it when we sent the video in, but when we did, we automatically went into training mode. We started running stadiums in our backpacks and learning all those things you see on the race — using a compass…we went repelling and rock-climbing. [Laughs.] We even went and shot a gun just to see what it was like and have a little bit of knowledge of everything that we possibly could. Of course, barely any of it helped out. But we thought we were pretty prepared going in!


The true superfans won!  :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:

The Amazing Race Winners Kelsey Gerckens and Joey Buttitta are Engaged! Watch the Heartwarming Proposal

https://www.youtube.com/v/zNO5UZTfJJw

First they traveled the world together, and now they'll be taking a trip down the aisle.

The Amazing Race's most-recent winners Kelsey Gerckens and Joey Buttitta were filming a segment for Hallmark Channel's Home & Family on Tuesday when Buttitta surprised Gerckens by getting down on one knee to propose.

The segment won't air until Wednesday morning, but PEOPLE has the exclusive preview clip of he proposal.

"We've run this amazing journey together and I love you. I can't imagine being with anyone else. Will you marry me?" Buttitta, 26, tells Gerckens, 25, in the clip.

Buttitta's parents Joe and Terry Buttitta were on hand for the proposal, as were Gerckens' mom Sheryl and brother Chad Gerckens.

Buttitta and Gerckens, both news anchors in Santa Barabara, Calif., said on Friday's Amazing Race finale that they planned to use their $1 million winnings to buy a place together, but now they have a lot more to possibly spend their money on – like their wedding!

Gerckens was mostly speechless after the proposal, but did manage to say, "Oh my gosh!"

Buttitta and Gerckens's episode of Home & Family will air Wednesday (at 10 a.m. ET) on Hallmark Channel.
