Looks like I found the matching tile right off the bat  |

He did say there are 11 tiles. Are they the same match for each of them?

It looks like pink girls are running last. The match is going to be tough to get through, even for detail oriented people. Needle in the haystack.

I hope the brothers do make it, and are not eliminated.
Ah two different tiles for them at least.

This team #1 isn't exactly my favorite, but I am glad it's not Anna Leigh. So there's that.

Yeah, I’m not rooting for that team. I’m guessing that she has passed her tile match at least once, probably while grumbling about someone.
Look how disappointed she is realizing she is team two and not one!

Oh my goodness, pink ladies have it! That was a shock. Those poor other teams who've been looking and looking, must've been so disheartened. The bearded guys made it, too, but it was quite a drop from where they started! |

Shouting someone’s name does not help, just increases the stress level.

Well, at least they went out with two wins, which means they got some nice prizes---a trip and cash, if I remember correctly.

I’m sorry to see them go, but, they had a great time! By Victor and Jocelyn, I will miss you.

I'm not keen on the team that came first, but I was so sad Jocelyn and Victor came last. They didn't even get the fish challenge as quickly as I thought they would.
Hard challenges, those mattresses, not easy even for the fit guys. That tile was horrible, I just can't believe how quickly some of them got it.
I loved the place they made their wishes, it's just the kind of place I love.

Not sure if it has ever been answered, but does anyone know the deals that Amazing Race has with the vendors they use on the show? Do the vendors actually use the things the contestants make or does the Amazing Race just pay for everything? Not a huge deal in the things like the fish market where people have to cook the fish, but I can't imagine that one vendor would then be able to sell that much fish. How about the ones where they have to make things? Would they be able to sell all those rice paper things after the contestants made them? I doubt it in the US due to the US stricter food standards, but maybe in other countries they can, but would they? I also imagine the waste of ingredients on things like the rice paper task would cost a lot more then average to make up with the sales for small operations.
I can also see some scenarios where the Amazing Race pays for everything and then they sell off the things after the show leaves in some situations.

Ugh! How frustrating to have made up time and gained a good position only to lose out with this kind of challenge that has a lot of luck in addition to any detail-oriented skill. I’m not really a fan of needle-in-a-haystack challenges like the last one that the contestants have so little control over.

Just started watching ... what a long leg.
At the King's Temple when everyone is looking for a matching tile, I got so sore at the Redheaded Texas girl who blatantly said she was not going to tell Rob she just saw his tile and then gets such an attitude when she asked Chelsea to help and Chelsea turned her down or rather ignored her. Red Head and her Dad were going off on Chelsea's character. What? What fugging hypocrites.

OMGosh, my favorite team Victor and Jocelyn are eliminated.
Casting did an excellent job this season. I have never ever seen so much jump and down movement in race placement on The Amazing Race, it is normally the top two or three all bro teams and you just hope someone else can get into the top three but they never do.
