It's Monday night and there is no better way to spend it than curled up on the couch with your friends watching someone simultaneously date 25 strangers on live TV. Yes, you live for a show that ensures the engagement of two strangers. From the romantic dates, to the crazy drama, to predicting who will win, you cannot get enough. You say you watch it for pure entertainment, but we all know you secretly love the show. And (although you'd never admit it) the final rose ceremonies stress you out way more than they should. But, one of the best parts of the show actually happens in the first episode. Behold, the much anticipated limo exits, where men and women try their best to make the perfect first impression. If theres one thing all viewers can agree on, it's that some contestants have an interesting idea of a "perfect first impression." So, in honor of the Bachelorette premiering, here are a few of the most outrageous and memorable limo exits from contestants of the past.
1. Chris Strandburg (Season 11)
Forget the limo. For Kaitlyn's season, this dentist arrived in a traveling cupcake, completing the entrance with the line "normally I tell my patients to avoid sugar, but I wanted to do something really sweet for you." Needless to say, the entrance earned him the nickname 'Cupcake' for the rest of the season.
2. Clare Crawley (Season 18)
A pregnant contestant? Nope, just Clare pretending to be pregnant for bachelor Juan Pablo. Apparently the stunt had something to do with Juan Pablo's daughter, as the contestant said she was thinking of adding more children into his life (creepy).
3. Jeff Medolla (Season 7)
During Ashley's season, this guy showed up in a mask. A little weird, but we've seen worse...right? Wrong. This contestant decided to keep his mask on for two whole episodes, making things a little uncomfortable to say the least.
4. Reegan Cornwell (Season 19)
5. Brett Melnick (Season 10)
Andi Dorfman got quite the present when this contestant showed up with a lamp from his hotel. His reasoning? Brett said his mother told him to "never greet a lady empty handed." The awkwardness continued when Andi reminded him that he should return the lamp.
6. Kaitlyn Bristowe (Season 10)
Before her turn as 'The Bachelorette,' Kaitlyn was by far one of the most daring contestants. Upon meeting small-town farmer Chris Soules, she told him he can "plow the f*** out of me any day." At least she was creative.
7. Tyler Morrow (Season 6)
8. Breanne Rice (Season 20)
Poor Ben. Not only did Breanne exit the limo and compare gluten to Satan, but afterward she made him destroy a loaf of bread (probably to guarantee he wouldn't eat it). Her pick up line was just as painful to hear: "instead of breaking the ice, we should break the bread." Yeah, that definitely didn't make things less awkward.
9. Randy Woyak (Season 8)
On season 16 of 'The Bachelor,' contestant Brittany had her grandma exit the limo before her. Well, Randy decided to take it one step further...by dressing up as his own grandma and greeting Emily. Yeah, this probably isn't the image you want your potential future wife to have stuck in her head.
