Grandma On The Gauntlet

It is no hidden fact that Beth is old, a good amount of the cast even jokes that her date of birth dates back to the dinosaurs. Last week she was eliminated by Coral who also made fun of her age. Coral did not want to “get beat my her grandma.” You'd think that a comment like that would come from someone considerably younger than Beth, right? Wrong.

As I recall from Coral's Back To New York season, she was one of the oldest. She's now 29. Beth is 39. In reality TV, they're both almost too old for VH1 even, but for Coral to call Beth a grandma is just kind of ridiculous. Nearing 40 is probably a little old for these challenges, but nearing 30 is not really too much farther behind. Beth was definitely no weakling when it came to stepping up. Coral on the other hand, was “bit by a spider” and bailed out on the final mission several challenges ago.

Although I love the I-don't-wrestle-I-beat-bitches-up Coral, I'd probably take the Grandma over her when it comes to winning $300,000.

I don't really watch TV or even know what this Gauntlet show is but don't under estimate a spider bite!

A Brown Recluse will fuck you up. And those buggers live all over North America, including Florida!

Sounds like someone (cough CORAL cough) is clinging desperately to the remaining strands of her youth!

Wow. If you haven't clicked on the "fuck you up" link in the first comment, please do. Make sure you have a barf bag handy.

What reality TV show is this? Personally, I think 39 is a ridiculously young age to call anyone Grandma.
