Another season – the ninth, if you are keeping track at home – of The Amazing Race has kicked off, this time not in somewhere like Los Angeles or New York, but Denver (actually outside Denver, but Denver is the closest place most people have heard of, so let’s keep it simple).
The eleven teams this time around are spread across most pairings that you would think of (and some you might not), such as a married couple, a pair of hippies – actually there could be more than one pair, but one really looks the part – sexy women, determined athletic types and even some nerds thrown in for good measure.
