I love the amazing race video. That was one tough girl..she went on to finish that leg of the race and they didn’t get eliminated.
The answer to # 15 is Ric Flair. LOL Sorry I know that. My daughter saw the picture and she said look a pretty dress. LMAO
How did that not knock her out cold? Amazing Race – Amazing shot in the face! Yes Jen, you got it: rick flair. The funny thing is that when I used to watch wrestling, way back then, what he used to wear was not all that weird. lol
