The Bachelorette 11 - Kaitlyn Bristowe - Clues - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*- NO Discussion

sbolduc wrote:Just some of my thoughts:

Ben
Pro - Not heavily promoted in promos, multiple sources indicating HTD, his IG photo tag "Home is where it starts" in conjunction with first convo with Kait around her tatoos and how they remind her of home and where she came from. Small town feel to his 1-1 (local hall for dance competition, tailgate kiss scene being filmed).  Kaitlyn said in an interview that she would like to return to small town roots.
Con - outside of personal thoughts on compatibility & age anything that dictates he might be out??

Chris
Pro - AL source, typical F1 SM activity, CH 5 to watch (historically a F1 hint)
Con - Not sure he even got HTD due to potentially recent photo tagging which would have been taken while HTD were filmed, also potential IG activity (both up for debate)

Shawn
Pro - He and Nick not following each other potential F1/F2? Not heavily active on SM more typical F1 behavour
Con - Heavily promoted in promos, he may get the frontrunner early edit based on RS feedback and others vs. Kaitlyns comment in interview that slow and steady wins the race vs. hot early. He is following girls from past seasons who live in the area (potential meet up) not really indication yet but if he does meet up I think it is a clue.

Nick
Pro - Almond butter tweet and Kaitlyn's response in interview that Almond Butter is one of her favourite foods (Nick tweeted about it first). He and Shawn not following each other potential F1/F2??? Multi sources he got HTD.
Con - Tweeting a lot (not typical F1) but don't think we can really go off of his SM right now. AL source he didn't get HTD.

Anything else??

sdmom wrote:Does f1 typically get an intro video? Can some one post answers from previous seasons? TIA

Yes and No:

Chris - Whitney yes
Ashley - JP yes
Emily - Jef yes
Sean - Cat did not but we saw it online after
Andi - No one did but we saw Josh's online after (Nick did not)
Des - I don't remember either Brooks or Chris having one could be wrong though
Brad 2.0 - Emily Yes
JP - didn't watch don't know

Chris - Pro - Kaitlyn's very fond reaction to seeing him in the access hollywood video (up for debate if tone was romantic or in the friend zone)


Shawn- pro: has a barn and seems able to provide rural lifestyle which K said she wanted, gregarious personality seems effortlessly funny - K described her guy she's looking for as "honest and hilarious ...but not as funny as me"  

Nick - pro: K said she likes a guy who can challenge her and bring out her serious side - nick enjoys stimulating conversation and looks for it
con: has facial hair - unlikely to do FRC fully bearded
