4 More Days!

The Amazing Race; After Dark is ready and waiting. Can you guys what you'll be good at?

The cup is ready to go somewhere new!
Sean and I are heading up to the cottage on Thursday night so please feel free to come any time on Friday.

Notes on the race:
Everyone will start at the same time for Leg 1, unless they have not met the previously listed conditions. For the second Leg, the first place team will leave immdiately, followed 20 seconds later by the second team, and so on. The winners of the first 3 legs will receive either
A yield: force another team to sit out for one full minute. Can be used at any point during the race by turning it in to me. Cannot be used in the 5th Leg.
An express pass: can be used to skip any task, detour or roadblock. Can be used at any point except the 5th Leg by turning it in to me.
A u-turn: force another team to complete BOTH tasks in a detour, OR use to to negate someone's express pass.

Preparing for the Race

This year's rules - subject to change! ;)

1. We race rain or no rain.
2. Each team needs a flashlight.
3. Each team needs a camera that can take pictures and small videos - phones are fine. If you don't have one, let me know.
4. No using phones for looking shit up unless otherwise stated.
5. Absolutely no tampering with or sabotaging another team's stuff. Luc, this means you. Cheaters will not be awarded the cup.
6. There will be 5 legs to the race. Each team member must complete at least 2 roadblocks (except for Gertie),
7. Cheaters will be eliminated. Everyone else gets to stay in the race, but time penalties will be assessed at the start of the next leg.


We will be racing Saturday, August 29th at sundown, 7:30-8pm. I will prepare a LIGHT meal shortly before the race for everyone to share.

All other food, booze, towels and elsewise, you can bring for yourself.

On your mark, get set....

Last year we ran an intense race in honour of Matt's 33rd birthday. Luc and Mel, considered the under dogs, were able to pull out a surprise win. They've carried the title and the trophy for nearly a year, but this, folks, is the end of that era.

I'm announcing to you today our next challenge - the Amazing Race: After Dark edition.

That's right. Game play starts after sunset on August 29th.

Returning champs Luc and Mel must relinquish their trophy.

Your first challenge is to give yourselves a team name and post it here. Check this page for updates.

RIP Terrance and Phillip

No longer swimming in lane #1 was Sir  Terrance Henry Stoot of the small village of Toronto. He died the morning after the race, at 55 years of age but swam the night before like he was already dead. His pastimes included riding the subway and insulting Ugly Bob. Past  winner of the Nobel peace prize and star of the hit movie Asses of Fire, Terrance will first and foremost be remembered as a family man. He leaves behind his wife, a deeply bereaved Queef Sister, and also leaves a bastard daughter from his ex girlfriend, Celine Dion. 

In lane #2 we had Sir Phillip Niles Argyle, born and bred in Montreal to swim like the uncle fucker he truly was. He died at the tender age of 54 of a vicious road-side dumping by the very people who made money off him the night before when he overcame diabetes, his shocking anglophone status, and his raging homosexuality to win the race. He starred in the hit TV show The Terrance and Phillip Show, which was based on an early appearance of Phillip's on the Ed Sullivan show at the age of 6 during which he accidentally broke wind. Today his catch phrase "you fah-ted" can be heard all over the world. his nemises included Scott the Dick who once tried to give him cancer with his mind, Brook Shields, whom he once slapped on the Conan O'brien show, and Luc Gibson, who murdered him. Phillip has no family to leave his fortune to but his pets Barky and Purry are surely starving in his absence.

Final Leg

Sorry boys, I don't even remember what dumb names you gave yourselves.

Pretty sure they were dumb though ;)
