"The Amazing Race 15" [6] Trivia Quiz

Answer: A shot of absinthe

In the beginning of Leg 11, teams started outside Prague Castle, one of the largest castle complexes in the world. Here, teams opened their clue and were told to travel across the city to the oldest church in Prague, the Spanish Synagogue. Upon their arrival here, the last place team, Brian and Ericka, had to face off against the final Speed Bump task in which they needed to travel to a bar known as the M1 Lounge and prepare a traditional shot of absinthe using a three-step process. Once they drank the shot they could return to the clue box at the Spanish Synagogue to continue on with the race.

Answer: FRANZ

After arriving at the Spanish Synagogue, teams were told to take a taxi to Ekotechnicke Museum in Prague where one member of each team would need to complete a Kafkaesque Road Block challenge. In this task, Meghan, Sam, Big Easy, and Brian needed to enter an absurd room containing hundreds of old telephones, only five of which would have someone on the other line to give them a letter. Once they accumulated the five letters, team members would head to an office to fill out a long list of questions.

At the bottom of the form, they would need to rearrange their five letters to spell the name Franz (a la Kafka) and to receive their clue. Otherwise, they needed to fill out the form again.

Answer: Golem

After the Road Block, teams taxied to a building known as the Kryocentrum, a holistic treatment center in which they needed to strip down and brave two minutes inside a chamber kept at a bone-chilling -160 degrees. After warming up in the gym, teams received another clue sending them across the city to Charles Bridge to find their next clue, a Detour task with 'Legend' and 'Lager' as options.

In 'Legend', teams needed to cover a wooden golem on wheels in wet clay, then bring it through the cobblestone streets of the city to a synagogue to receive their clue. Two of the teams completed this task.

Answer: Thirty

Teams not choosing the 'Legend' Detour task needed to finish 'Lager'. In this task, Brian and Ericka needed to head to a brewery in the city to receive trays and glasses of beer. They then needed to transport thirty glasses to a bar across town. This task proved to be difficult as teams needed to have good dexterity and enough patience to avoid the late night/early morning bar crowds enough to deliver all of the glasses to their destination and receive their next clue.

Answer: Flight Time and Big Easy

After the Detour task, teams made their way to the next Pit Stop at Strelecky Ostrov, a park in the center of Prague. Here, Meghan and Cheyne took a third consecutive first place victory (their sixth overall) winning a pair of 52-inch LCD flatscreen TVs. Sam and Dan arrived in second a short time later and, at sunrise, Brian and Ericka checked in in third. Flight Time and Big Easy were unable to finish their Road Block, during which Big Easy opted to take the four hour penalty for not completing the task.

They became the final team eliminated from the race.

Answer: Nevada

In Leg 12, teams received a clue to begin their final leg of the race at Strelecky Ostrov in Prague. This told teams to make their way to their final destination city of the race, Las Vegas, Nevada. All three remaining teams boarded the same flight from Prague to Las Vegas via London, England and arrived midday in sin city. Upon their arrival, teams needed to take a taxi to the Graceland Wedding Chapel on the Vegas Strip to get their next clue from 'The King', an Elvis impersonator.

Answer: A hotel

After visiting Elvis, teams were told to taxi to the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on the strip. Here, teams located the final Road Block task of the race during which one member of each team (Ericka, Cheyne, and Sam) needed to reach the roof of the resort, 66 stories up, and perform a face-first rappel down to the bottom of the structure.

After this, teams needed to take a taxi to The Mirage where they would join in a task orchestrated by the cast of Cirque du Soleil's "Love".

Answer: Poker chips

At The Mirage, teams strapped into bungees and leaped for a bouquet of flowers suspended high above the floor of the theater. Once they handed this to the 'flower child' they could receive their next clue. This time they were told to locate "the most famous casino in Monaco", then drive to the Monte Carlo to find their next clue in the Poker Suite.

Here, teams needed to choose a table filled with thousands upon thousands of poker chips and they needed to count out their prize, one million dollars, before receiving a large $1,000,000-value chip and their next clue.

Answer: Wayne Newton

After the poker chip challenge, teams hopped back into their taxis to reach the MGM Grand Las Vegas. Once there, they needed to take the service elevator to one of the top floors to find the penthouse suite. Once inside they would be given their final clue in 'Suite 88' from Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton (whose name Sam and Dan totally spaced on).

Their final clue wasn't even in an envelope; Mr. Newton simply said that the finish line was at his house in Vegas.

Answer: Meghan and Cheyne

When teams left the MGM Grand Las Vegas, they discovered that Wayne Newton's ranch and their finish line were one in the same, so they headed to the Casa de Shenandoah. After a cab ride through Las Vegas, Meghan and Cheyne were the first team to arrive at the finish line and they became the winners of the fifteenth "Amazing Race" after traveling through nine countries and over forty thousand kilometers.

They were followed by Sam and Dan in second place and Brian and Ericka in third.
