City Chase – a real-life urban exploration where Fear Factor meets The Amazing Race – was one of the craziest events San Diego has seen in all of '09.

From the early morning departure amid thick June gloom mist to strip bowling at East Village Tavern and Bowl, rock karaoke at House of Blues, daring haircuts (or eye brow shaves…) at Paul Mitchell, flip cup at The Local, “Suck and Blow” at Urban Mo’s and many physical challenges at landmarks across town, adventurous locals discovered a whole new side of San Diego on Saturday, June 20.

From preparation and strategy to wacky outfits and biggest fears, Michelle got an Insider look for DSD on NBCSanDiego.

The vicious Beer Backs are only afraid of not winning.
