Following the show, the winner would have to give back the "glowing piece of the radical rock" that they were presented with.
A.J. McLean of the Backstreet Boys, and Mike Vogel were contestants.
On 21 August 1993, the show aired an hour long special entitled "GUTS All Stars" to kick off the second season. In this special, the three perfect score champions from the previous season faced off against each other. The grand prize would be an all-star trophy, which they could keep, and a college scholarship worth $2,500. A home video of this special was released in 1994 with added commentary by NFL linebacker Lawrence Taylor.
The third season made several substantial changes to the show. Female backing vocals were added to the theme songs, new events were added, a lineup board showing the day's events was shown after the first game, a halftime show was added after the second event, and there were several Aggro Crag changes as well. For the fourth season (Global Guts), all of these changes were done away with (other than the theme song backing vocals.)
