If there was no Kansas City this year then most of the competitors would compete in Cleveland

{MAJOR SPOILER}POM run for Maggi Thorne on the Bar Hop? gg KC I was praying you were kidding! Rip everyone else. I kind of chuckled when it happened. They wanted to break the streak of only one tower going to Vegas. The irony was they did break the streak. Was that Bromageddon, a Bropocolypse or a Brotastorphe? High: No bro themed vignette Low: Will miss a couple great competitors in Vegas. I'm pissed that they gave POM run to Maggi. They should've given it to the Science Ninja. Furthest run, and nearly finished the course. Or to Tyler Yamauchi . His run was impressive. The only member of the fantastic bro to make it past the Broken Pipes. A mental error kept him from attempting the Elevator Climb. {Spoiler}Thanks for spoiling Megan made it to the wedge anw I found this to be less of an issue than the way the presented Jesse on the Giant Cubes. I expected Megan to make it to at least the 8th obstacle. And since the Wedge is reused from last year, seeing her at the beginning wasn't a big spoiler in my mind. It's funny that the airing of the cities was changed due to the Brown's game. Airing Cleveland before KC strengthened patterns we were seeing in the editing choices and the course design: 1. The first runner of the night has little chance of making it to Vegas and will show us the eighth obstacle 2. The eighth obstacle is the decider for going on to Vegas Well that is blown out of the water. Only nine runners made it to the eighth obstacle. Completing the Salmon Ladder i thought was necessary for moving on, thanks William for pointing out the recent exception, took out five ninjas, including the first runner of the night, and they all made it to Vegas. The 15th qualifier didn't even attempt the Warped Wall, so much for having to beat it to move on to Vegas. Overall I enjoyed the episode, despite the interruption. When it happened, I felt like Kirk in the Wrath of Khan, TRUUMMMP!, TRUMMMMP!, TRUMMMP! ps I apologize if any of this has been said. Catching up after the eclipse. Drove 16 hours down to Cookville, TN on Saturday with my son to see the totality then took a couple days to get back.

The 15th qualifier didn't even attempt the Warped Wall, so much for having to beat it to move on to Vegas. I'm positive I'm the only person, throughout all regions, to qualify for the national finals without making it up the wall or completing the 5th obstacle ): With 15 people failing that 3rd night, you can say the odds were In my favor.

My video talking about the Kansas City Finals. Features an interesting segment. Just an fyi: pom is in litigation with fda over their claims. It is sugar water does not have the fiber or benifits of eating a pomegranate. Drinking a soda or nrg drink is only slightly worse than drinking pom. Just a public service announcement to keep people from getting diabetes.

Some insight as to why Jeremiah Morgan wasn't featured, on the latest episode of the Armchair Ninja Podcast, Tyler Yamauchi said that he recalls Jeremiah severely injured himself before Vegas, so he didn't compete in Vegas. He thinks this is why they cut him both episodes. But either way, the show tends to feature him as little as possible.
