The Amazing Race season 37.

The Amazing Race's Carson and Jack revealed a surpridate about their $1 million grand prize.

Carson and Jack have brought their fun and entertaining personalities to TikTok (via @Dweebwars), and in a recent video, Jack posted an update that said, "When you just won a million dollars on The Amazing Race but the check hasn't cleared yet." The video showed Jack eating ramen noodles straight out of the pot he cooked it in, making it seem like he couldn't afford a lot of food. However, he added a funny caption itting that his eating habits won't change once the check does arrive, saying, "Let’s be honest imma still be eating ramen noodles when it does."

In the video, Jack looked at the camera and said with a straight face, "What?" humorously warning everyone to not judge him for eating ramen noodles. The next shot showed Carson holding a lager in one hand while drinking the beverage out of a champagne glass. He could also be seen riding the subway, but he couldn't keep it together and started laughing.

What Carson & Jack Not Receiving Their Prize Yet Means

The Amazing Race Is Likely Following A Strict Legal Process

It's somewhat surprising that Carson and Jack haven't received their $1 million grand prize yet, especially considering The Amazing Race season 37 was filmed all the way back in May and June 2024, which was a year ago. However, it's possible that the winners don't get the money until sometime after the season airs. It's been less than three weeks since the finale aired on TV. There's probably a very particular legal process the network has to go through before they're allowed to send out the check.

American Idol season 23 champion Jamal Roberts made similar comments recently after his own exciting win. He was asked about the money less than two weeks after the live finale, so it made sense that he hadn't received his prize yet. The Survivor season 48 finale aired six days after the Amazing Race season 37 finale, so, presumably, Kyle Fraser is in a similar situation as Carson and Jack.

Our Take On Carson & Jack Using Humor While Waiting For $1 Million

Carson & Jack Have Fun While Waiting For Their Money

The Carson and Jack we saw on TV every week are the same Carson Jack in real life and on social media. They quickly became fan-favorites on The Amazing Race after excelling in certain tasks, maintaining positive attitudes and proving they could overcome challenges despite starting out as the underdogs. There's no doubt that Carson and Jack are two of the most likable winners in Amazing Race history.

Even though the "check hasn't cleared yet," they're not mad about it. Instead, they're having fun with the situation and entertaining their fans and social media followers. Hopefully, The Amazing Race duo will provide an update once they've received their prize, preferably in a funny TikTok video for all to see.
