The dance is finally over.
Last night, David Ross performed for one of the last times on Dancing With The Stars and fittingly danced to “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.” Well, it started out as “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” but quickly merged into Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock’s “It Takes Two.” Rossy must have felt comfortable dancing to popular 80’s song because he already knew all the words which he showed off during an interesting freestyle at this year’s Cubs Convention. Ross has had a magical run this season and has captured the hearts of fans across America. Even though America has fallen in love with Rossy’s dance skills, he appears to be a severe underdog to win the competition.
According to Goldderby.com, Ross has the worst odds to win the coveted “mirror ball” trophy that will be handed out on tonight’s final episode. Singer Normani Kordei is the runaway favorite to win with odds of 1/3, which translates to a 76%. Football player Rashad Jennings is next in line to win the trophy with 9/2 odds, or an 18% chance and at the very end, all the way back in the standings, is David Ross.
Last week, nobody predicted his shocking victory over Simone Biles but thanks to Cubs nation’s votes, Ross made it through. Last week, Ross had 100/1 odds of prevailing, but now he’s up to odds of 16/1, or a 6% chance of taking the Mirror Ball Trophy. I mean, it’s not like this is the first time Ross has faced insurmountable odds (Remember the whole 3-1 thing?)
Although Ross has the worst odds to win it all tonight, a ton of celebrities took to Twitter last night to throw their support behind Rossy.
