Original Season: Season 9


Where they Placed: Danielle: 8th Place and Eric: 2nd Place

Team Nickname: "[The race] is about being focused, not fighting, and having a lot of luck sometimes, too. For me, this time around, it's about packing lighter." said Danielle.

Team Biography: They met while racing against each other in Season 9, and have been dating long-distance for the past two years. This time around, Eric & Danielle are going to combine their efforts using strengths from their former teammates as they forge this new partnership hoping they have what is takes to race with the best of them.
Danielle raced last time with her childhood friend, Dani. She is originally from Staten Island, NY. She wants to do better this time and says she wasn't prepared for the first race. Eric raced with his best friend, Jeremy. A two-time NCAA Track and Field All American in the pole vault, Eric describes himself as being athletic and outgoing. He admits that he's somewhat bitter about how the last race ended and is super competitive.

Since we last saw them: Danielle is still in Staten Island where she works as a bartender while finishing her Master's Degree in Education. Eric, who works as a waiter, enjoys his laid-back lifestyle and lives on the beach in Florida.

Their Biggest Competitor?: With Oswald & Danny, Rob & Amber, and Uchenna & Joyce gone, their two biggest competitors are Dustin & Kandice and Charla & Mirna because they are the two other teams racing for $1 million!

Their Biggest Strengths: Other teams don't have any idea how they would race, seeing that they're a fresh, new team . . . a factor that they may not know, themselves. All that is obvious is that, they're young & they seem strong, physically.

Their Biggest Roadblocks: They had not raced together before, unlike the other teams; and, their patience with each other. They've been fighting/bickering a lot lately.

Advice to the team: Concentrate on your tasks.

Danielle: "How are you reading and walking like this?"

Eric: “I’m treating her pretty much like a guy, except she has nicer boobs.”
Danielle: “We’re going on a charter plane to go to Australia.”

Eric: “Go stand in a puddle, drop your hairdryer in it and kill ourselves.”


Memorable Moments with Eric and Danielle: That horrible incident where they were asked to leave the plane because they were given the seats by mistake. That would be SO BAD for anybody! It's great for them to check in after the 30-minute penalty as they arrived last in the non-elimination Leg. I'm happy that we have a major upset after they finished 1st in only one Leg, but it was the final leg of the season finale of The Amazing Race over the other two female teams! I congratulate them for winning The Amazing Race! They're the coolest team ever!
