You Don’t Have To Run Yourself Into A Frenzy, Enjoy Poker At Home
The teams of the Amazing Race and their avid followers were in for a real gem of a finale as Vegas was the final destination! The team of Meghan Rickey and Cheyne Whitney had beaten all the other teams in the race around the globe and in just 21 days had visited an amazing eight countries. The race is quite the challenge as they have very little funds and have to beat the other teams to the location check points or be disqualified from the game.
With the prize set at a huge 1 million dollars, this isn’t just a fun and games race, this is a serious competition.
The series finale ended with the winners crossing the finish line at Wayne Newtons house in Las Vegas. They seemed to be in shock as they were told that they were the first to cross and had won the jackpot. “For real?” Cheyne asked the producer. The team had had been favoured to win because they were in such great physical shape and unlike some others had managed to keep their bickering down to an absolute minimum. This can be quite the challenge in the game, as the race is a very stressful experience.

As with a lot of winners of reality shows, they both claimed that although the cash was important, the experience was why they entered. “The experience is life-changing and the money is not even as important as what we got to do together,” Cheyne explained in his post-win interview segment. “She was one of the strongest competitors, even compared to the guys. I’m grateful she is on my side~I’m very grateful that she is on my team~I’m grateful that she is on my side}~I’m grateful that she is on my side~I’m very grateful that she is on my team~I’m grateful that she is on my side#}.” She added, “This has been a learning experience. Every single footstep had been pretty neat. I learned an awful lot about Cheyne. He’s a good person and friend who will be there for me throughout my life.”
In the finale there was a real nail biter as it appeared that the teams were running neck and neck. The team that consisted of Erika Dunlap and Brian Kleinschmidt, and Dan and Sam McMillen who are brothers, were the competition. Once arrived in Vegas the teams joined in with the cast of Cirque Du Soliel’s Love, sorted their way through at least a million dollars worth or chips and even managed to fit in a singalong with Elvis. Naturally this made for very entertaining viewing!
