The Bachelor - Bachelorette - Statistics - Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

AL has amazing statistics from many previous seasons. This is a NO Discussion thread so information can be posted here. Copy what you want to discuss over to the Sleuthing threads.

Thanks AL!

Thanks GA!! I will get things put in soon.

Maybe this isn't the place to ask this question but here goes. Going back as far as you can, where have the leads come from? It seems like the pattern is usually to pick F3 from the previous season. I wish they would consider leads from other seasons. JMO

Just curious what this looks like if you are able AL.

Ben- F3 previous season
Kaitlyn-F3 previous season
Chris-??? F4
Andi-???F3

It seems to happen like this often, but it isn't always the case: Jen S, Trista, Kaitlyn/Britt, Jake(!), Deanna, Brad 2.0, JPG. 
F3 works nicely because they usually aren't divisive and has an established fan base, imo.

Right, while F3 is the most frequent position, there have been others including F1 Emily.

Jason and Ben F were f2s to add to Kashas list of non- f3 leads.

Plus we heard that they had asked F2s in some seasons to be the lead but we're turned down. So it's not like tptb are stuck on F3.

Ok maybe we'll make this a discussion thread and have another one for NO discussion for easy reference?

Sounds good. Perhaps limited discussion. So the stats don't get lost, too.

Chris was in the final 3. Not 4.

First TB: Alex Michel(sp?) and F1 Amanda.

I made a NO Discussion thread for statistics so they don't get buried in posts.

ChrisL from Ali's season was another F2 it was speculated they wanted, but he wasn't interested.
