Default Hey guys, check out this blog from a TBL Finalist.........

much better than the lawyer's opinion, and some very interesting tidbits about the process, including how they had them segregated into "teams" even before the run in the desert!! hmmm Anyway, follow this link and go to the bottom of the page - Week in LA, Day 1. Then you'll need to read up from there.

He got all the way thru to the trip to LA and was cut the nite before filming started - the last guy cut, but he made it all the way thru wardrobing and outfitting, photo shoots, etc.
