By: 89 Octane I have to admit that I am obsessed with the Real World/Road Rules Challenge.  I think it is the greatest reality TV show in history.  I have been watching it so long that I still call it the Real World/Road Rules Challenge even though I think Road Rules was cancelled back in … Continue reading
