[RandomWatcher]

Makes you wonder how Paul (BB19) is handling this.

I know the winner gets the million.  does 2nd and 3rd get anything?

They do get paid, but considerably less.  TPTB won't confirm the amounts, but rumor has it that second place is worth $25,000 and third gets $10,000.

Nope.  Second gets $100,000, and third gets $75,000.

If Cody & Jessica win, he will not handle that well.  I almost want them to for that reason, though my heart still lies with Kristi & Jen.

This Australian misled the Skiers on Leg 11, but it was insufficient to save Indy 500:

Even worse, like a total jerk, he did it on purpose.  I don't know if he was trying to help Cody & Jessica like apparently other fans were trying to do or just cause purposeful trouble.

Where were others helping them?

This is over, correct?  We should know the winner very soon, if so. 

[Wings]

Why is no one spoiling the winner? I don't usually watch this show but I am because of Cody and Jessica.  So maybe the winner is never spoiled.  No clue.  But I want to know!

RFF totally knows who won, but they want to keep up the suspense of the finishing order of the F3, for some reason.  Makes no sense to me, since up to about All-Stars, they had no problem spoiling the final order, either.

Various places, apparently.

Yes.  The race ended in the middle of the night on Tuesday.  Probably around two or three a.m. PST.  The final leg was a rare nighttime finale.

How annoying.  Surely someone else in San Francisco knows who won.  A hotel employee over hearing something or getting a tell somehow.  Many fans hang out around the finish area and though too far away to see they could hear something.  Does that ever happen?

We finally have a claim from a San Francisco local.  Despite all desperate Cody & Jessica fans hoping that they won . . . @Jaewe3 on Twitter is claiming that Kristi & Jen (the Skiers) did.  Cody & Jessica (Jody) were right in it even to the end, but only managed second.  Henry & Evan (the Debaters) ended the whole thing in third.

So if this pans out, we'll finally have our fourth winning women's team, joining Nat & Kat, Kisha & Jen, and Amy & Maya.  And it seems like Cody & Jessica will share the bridesmaid position that Paul has endured twice in a row on BB.  At least they'll have beaten Brendon & Rachel's two-time record of third place for a BB team.

Quite the bittersweet double airing on Valentine's Day: one pair of lovers succumbs to the desert whereas the rainforest saves another.

Are Henry & Evan lovers?  I know Lucas & Brittany are, but Henry & Evan didn't seem to be.

First two-hour finale in seven seasons: these doubles dominated the stretch between Unfinished Business and S23 with one exception, the legendary elimination of the anti-Buddhist Snowboarder bigots that is looking to be repeated with these chauvinistic * Indy 500 boys.

* As in, Tweet-flirting with an adult film star.

Indy drivers are normally seen as idols, though, so their edit should be interesting.

* Only other occurrence being S19.

After Liz & Marie were ousted and Andy & Tommy dominated way too much, I gave up on that season.  Who were the victims of it at the F7?  I know Bill & Cathi and Laurence & Zac got it at the F6, but . . . F7?

Hong Kong is definitely part of China, but it has a separate government and rights unlike neighboring Mainland China.

Per their bios they have been dating for a year and a half and are serious.  They didn't actually say if they are lovers.

[Satyavati]

The Teammate Switch twist on Leg 7 will almost certainly leave the #TheFirefighters with zero leg wins just like #TeamWellStrung.

[raven]

Sounds plausible.  I've been watching but don't really have a favorite here; all 3 teams have been annoying at one time or another.  If true, reallly bad time for a mistake by Kristi & Jen.

Quote

All three teams were neck and neck when they reached their final destination: the USS Hornet Museum in Alameda. There they faced their final physical challenge, which ended with a daring jump off the site of the aircraft carrier.

There are conflicting reports about the final result. While Kristi and Jen are thought to have finished the task first, they may not have been allowed to check in at the mat as they had not paid their taxi driver. If that pans out, it looks like Jessica and Cody will be declared the winners and take home the million dollar grand prize. With the pair just getting engaged, they could be set for a spectacular wedding and honeymoon.
