10 Photos Of The Wildest Limo Arrivals From The Bachelorette Premiere

From Alec’s children's choir to Jacob’s shirtless arrival, the new men on The Bachelorette certainly made an unforgettable first impression on Gabby and Rachel.

Tino took advantage of his occupation as a contractor and ditched the limo, instead arriving on a forklift. Somehow, it worked, as Tino earned Rachel’s first impression rose and made out with her the whole night.

Self-proclaimed “meatball enthusiast” James decided to lead with his passion, bringing perhaps the world’s largest meatball sandwich to Gabby and Rachel. Hopefully, the food didn’t go to waste.

Ethan strolled out of the limo juggling three apples — and immediately dropping them. “Clearly I can’t juggle two women, but I promise you I can be quite the catch,” he told Gabby and Rachel, before making them catch the apples. How clever.

Joey and Justin didn’t have to do much to make an impression on Gabby and Rachel — they’re twins. However, their twin telepathy ended up being the trait that sent them home on the first night.

Alec didn’t arrive alone, bringing a four-person youth choir to perform an original song about how much Clayton — who dumped Gabby and Rachel on his season of The Bachelor — completely sucked. It was an odd choice to remind them of their ex right off the bat, but the ladies still got into the song.

In what might be the most unsanitary Bachelorette entrance of all time, Justin decided to meet Gabby and Rachel barefoot. As fellow contestant Ethan quipped, perhaps he didn’t put his best foot forward.

When contestants make extremely extra entrances, they sometimes end up looking like clowns. So Ryan decided to embrace the title and also came equipped with a savage joke. “I know what it looks like,” he said. “I’m not Clayton.”

Logan kept his entrance wholesome, arriving with two baby chicks named Alejandra and Mary Beth (who he may have held a bit too tightly). “When I heard there was going to be two Bachelorettes, I figured I should practice hanging out with a couple of cute chicks all the time,” he quipped, landing points in the dad joke department.

Brandan didn’t just make an entrance, he made a grand reveal, arriving in a blue sheet that covered his entire body from head to toe. Gabby and Rachel had to undo the sheet themselves so they can see what Brandan actually looked like. The Blue Man Group would be proud.

No contestants captured the hearts of Twitter more than Jacob Rapini, who rolled up to the house shirtless and riding a white horse, giving strong Fabio vibes. “We hugged and we were very sheen,” Rachel told E! about the memorable entrance. “I was almost like a highlighter after.”
