The Teams Aren’t Told What to Pack
Before you go on any kind of vacation or trip, you probably spend some time making lists of everything you need to pack and think carefully about all the items you might need. Well, it’s the same deal for the contestants on The Amazing Race.
The show doesn’t issue any kind of special memo or list to tell the contestants what to take, so they just have to figure it all out for themselves. This can have a really big impact on the results of the race, as contestants who pack wisely and travel light can get around more quickly and easily.
