Inspiration: My senior year of high school I became obsessed with MTV's The Challenge - a reality competition show in which the players compete in various physical and mental competitions to win a cash prize at the end. Since its founding as The Real World/Road Rules Challenge, the show has evolved into a spectacle that Bill Simmons refers to as America's 5th Major Sport. The game blends elements of athletic competition, mental puzzles, and political strategy. I’ve always believed that I would crush it on this show, but how can I truly know if I've never been on it? The cast of The Challenge seems to always come from other reality TV shows so... here’s my shot!
