Many of the contestants on Season 28 of the Amazing Race probably looked familiar. They were all social media stars and gamers from YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, or Vine. Perhaps the most recognizable and favorite team was Michigan natives and YouTube stars Tyler Oakley and Korey Kuhl.

Tyler and Korey met when they were students at Michigan State University and have been friends since. Both have large followings on social media, especially on YouTube, their main platform. Tyler has published a book, Binge, and released a documentary, Snervous, directed by Amy Rice. Korey regularly posts on Twitter.

Tyler and Korey, or Team Torey, quickly rose to the top five teams and stayed in the top three until the end. Although they did not come in first and win the $1 million prize, they ended in third behind Dana and Matt and Sheri and Cole.

Of course, Team Torey recieved endless support from their fans throughout the entire season.

After the season was over, the contestants and past ones went on ta special episode of The Price Is Right.
