We had a shocking elimination on “The Amazing Race” season 38 last night. After a live Double U-Turn vote left Tucker & Eric needing to complete both parts of the Detour on “The Amazing Race” 2025, they ended up getting to the Pit Stop last and being eliminated by host Phil Keoghan.
After winning four legs in a row, and never finishing less than fourth place all season long, the brothers were eliminated, and the fans had a lot to say about it in our “The Amazing Race” spoilers below.
Last Night’s Elimination on ‘The Amazing Race’
We had a new episode of “The Amazing Race” season 38 last night. For this episode, the six remaining teams all hopped on a flight to Athens, Greece. Once they landed in Greece, they were surprised to see Phil Keoghan waiting for them.
He surprised the teams with a live vote. They would each cast their votes for a Double U-Turn, where two teams would have to do both the Detours on this leg of the race.
The votes ended up in a tie, which meant three teams would have to complete both Detours: Tucker & Eric, Jas & Jag, and Kyland & Taylor. The three teams that were leading the last leg of the race were now faced with completing double the work.
While it did affect Kyland & Taylor, as they were struggling in the back of the pack most of the night, the other two teams recovered nicely. Jas & Jag actually got both Detours done before Jack & Chelsie even made it to their Detour spot.
However, in the end, Tucker was struggling with the Road Block task. He just couldn’t figure out the lowercase Greek letters. It came down to him and Taylor at the end, but she got them completed first, and they survived elimination.
Fans React to Tucker & Eric’s Elimination
After the elimination, fans of “The Amazing Race” definitely went online to voice their frustration. Tucker & Eric have been clear frontrunners all season long, and then this happened.
One user wrote, “This was total sabotage by production.” Another person added, “Joseph and Adam weren’t penalized for coming in last. Unfair! If you’re not going to eliminate every round, then you should have a penalty the next round.”
The live vote had people worked up. This fan wrote, “This U Turn thing is BS, so let’s punish the best and help the weaker teams, ok🙄.” While this person wrote, “So Tucker and his brother were obviously on a winning streak so you come up with a vote where you know they’re going to be penalized and they lose.”
It continued, as this person wrote, “I hate with a capital H this season they cheated Tucker and Eric out of this race, this double u-turn only gives advantage to weaker teams.”
One final comment said, “This was a bummer of an episode tonight. We like the twists and turns but the best team should win, not go home.”
