A Final Dash for Cash This Week on Wanted: Ted or Alive on Sportsman Channel
OutdoorHub 04.21.13
The final competition challenge is here and involves swimming after duck decoys, building rafts from pallets, and searching through a trash heap this week on Wanted: Ted or Alive, staring rock and roll’s original wild man, Ted Nugent, airing on Sportsman Channel tonight at 7 pm ET/PT. The group questions one seemingly “meek” contestant and their real capabilities. Were they just playing to the game only to come back and take home the big prize on the last day? The hour-long series follows five contestants as they fight to survive on Ted’s ranch, dubbed “Camp Nuge,” in Michigan and compete for cash prizes. Tune in for the unexpected as Nugent teaches his targets how to survive – Motor City Madman style.
The contestants take stock of their rankings as the final challenge approaches. Big Jim arrives and they are off to an ATV race as only Ted can do it. Not only must they complete the course in the fastest time but they have to take out as much “stuffed road kill” as possible in the process. Afterwards they get turned into Ted’s swamp dogs as they race through waist high swamp waters to grab floating cases of cash as fast as possible. The winner will pocket more than $5,000 in Nuge Bucks – a total big enough to be a game changer for everyone involved. The final competition arrives and presents the group with a challenge that involves swimming after duck decoys, building their own raft from pallets, and frantically searching through a trash heap. The final two contestants hunt each other down on a paintball obstacle course for the title of champion and $25,000 cash.
This reality show will have contestants question if they can truly survive the outdoors – and Nugent. From prepping live chickens for dinner to a “spiritual quest,” the five contestants battle themselves as well as each other – and without fail, Nugent is always in their head too.
Considered a “master outdoorsman” and one of the world´s best guitarist showman, Nugent pushes the limits of each contestant as they are thrown into the wild and forced to live off the land to eat, win and survive with Ted´s tools and by Ted´s rules. From using buffalo skin to make their own clothes to learning the sharp shooter skills of an archer, they participate in various challenges throughout the episodes, accruing points in the form of cash dollars along the way. The participant with the most ´money´ at the end of the week will win a grand prize of $25,000.
