Bachelorette JOJO - Hometown dates

Bachelorette Episode 8 - Hometown dates

I love me some home town dates - this is when you really get to see who is really bat shit crazy because you can't hide crazy around your family. 

First Hometown - 

Colorado Chase

Now - obviously this is going to be my favorite because its in Colorado - woop woop! The scenery is the best of Colorado - which is our amazing mountain views - but that is not where Chase lives. He lives in Highlands Ranch, a town full of stay at home moms, Starbucks at every turn, and a big ass Ikea. 

Anyway - they start off on a mountain top and I giggle because there is so much snow. They have hot coco and Colorado Chase talks about his parents that had a nasty divorce and telling her that is why he has been so slow to get into this whole JOJO love affair. 

They go back to his house which - YEP! that is your typical cookie cutter Highlands Ranch home. Its adorable. They have his dad over since its still an ugly relationship between his parents and his dad just gives them advice, they have him leave and now they go to his moms house. 

They house is in the richer Highlands Ranch part - beautiful home. They all pretend to have dinner, all go separate ways to talk to each other, Colorado Chase even sheds a tear - and then the night is over. He walks her out and finally says that he is falling in love with her. 

Second Hometown - 

Jordan 

They start off this hometown of Chico California at his high school. Which is weird. The last thing I would want to do is take someone to my high school. He never had a GF in high school which is also weird but then I remember he is Aaron Rodgers bro and he got all the ass while poor Jordan tried to be like big bro. Can we talk about Jordan's hair? It is a reverse mullet and its so floopy that he has to keep touching it. JOJO tries to ask him about his brother but Jordan says its a non-topic. I am with JOJO on this one - what happened?!!? We have to know!!! 

They go to his family's house and his mom loves JOJO's laugh and seems to just think she is the best. JOJO asks the other brother, Luke about Aaron and he dismisses it as well. This whole home town is a mystery!! Everyone seems to get along and the night is over, realizing that we did not find out about Aaron Rodgers and why he is a huge dick. 

Third Hometown - 

Robby 

We go south to St. Augustine Florida, where Robby takes them on a carriage ride pointing out the history of this town. They talk over drinks about his ex and if she has anything to worry about and he says no. 

They go to his parents house and they all seem like a normal family. His mom warns Robby that his ex's roommate is spreading rumors that he broke up with her for the show, which is not true according to Robby when he told JOJO about this. She seems nervous about all of it - but he calms her down just before they have to say goodbye. 

Last Hometown - 

Luke 

They get to go back to her hometown of Texas. They go to a family and friends reunion where there is like 50 plus people there and JOJO is overwhelmed but does a good job of getting along with everyone. After the cluster of the big ass family and friends, they go on a horse back ride to a hay couch. After that, he takes her to a path with a heart at the end and tells her she has her heart. 

Rose Ceremony 

JOJO is stressed and has no idea what she is doing, but she is nailing that dress she is in - she is beautiful. She is going to send Luke home and right before she says the first name, Luke needs to talk to her. He tells her that he is falling in love with her and that he didn't say it at the hometown which he regrets. You can see it in her face that she is thinking ... WELL SHIT!! So he walks back to line up and she goes the other way being even more confused. She cries and the words TO BE CONTINUED popped up making me say out loud, COME ON!! 

So .... TBC ....
