Leg 4




Everyone's scattered on a photo scavenger hunt!





Bizarrely this is the product of a "trip to China town" -
at least Matt has a childhood dream realized:
to see his name spelled out in candy.

Leg 3


Uh oh! Looks like someone got yielded!










These are the 
scotch bonnet peppers that were 
the undoing of nearly every racer (Sean a notable 
exception). They are rated at 100 000-300 000 scoville units (a jalepeno is rated at 2500-8000).

Later, racers agreed they should
have done the Legos!



To break the heat, racers had to decide which team member had ice in their veins - and then plunged their feet to fetch up treasures from the bottom of a bucket of ice water.

The Race - Leg 2


The ancient art of egg-on-a-spoon. Surprisingly there are no breaks.

Digging for coins in a vat of cold spaghetti. Not as easy as it sounds.


Memorizing the lyrics to C.R.E.A.M.


Memorized!!


Building a marshmallow launcher





The Race

Leg One:
Find coins from 1981 around the property.





Stack die OR blow the joker.



The leg finished up with eating tonnes (for Luc) of shot cups filled with various eatables.
Matt & Sean place first, Andre and Joel finish second.

2014 Champions - Team Blue, Luc & Mel

Congratulations to Luc and Mel for their big win on Saturday.


They didn't always run a consistent game but they kept competitive right to the end, chugging water and eating peas like champs to secure the win.

Before the game even began, Luc was making bold predictions:


Drinking like he already owned the race.


He's a winner. Obviously.

Your Sexually Ambiguous Host - Jamie

Viewers may remember her as the dynamic host of "Have the Cabbie Guess Your Bra Size", the brief host of "Belly or Ear", or the befuddled host of a Japanese game show called "Let's Get Hot Sauce Endurance!" which ended suddenly when the host was embroiled in a scandal involving curdoroy and waffles and was abruptly deported from the country.

This season she makes her triumphant return to Canadian soil as cheerful but ultimately confused host of The Amazing Race: Matt's Birthday Edition.  Stay tuned for her inane blather as she throws to commercial, and her inevitable blungling of the whole damn thing.*



*The network would like to assure viewers that the Race will continue despite any eptitude on the part of the host.
