'Dancing with the Stars' season 27: Double elimination costs both Team Joe Down and Team Hay Now

Leaving the competition this week was a contestant fans never expected to see getting eliminated, and another whose scores haven't been all that impressive in this season of DWTS.

The inevitable has happened on ABC's hit reality show, 'Dancing with the Stars' season 27, and anybody who has been following the show would know what we speak of. But for those still to catch up, we had reported earlier how the possibility of a double elimination was looming large, and finally, on Monday's Country Night themed episode, the competition saw two star contestants leaving: DeMarcus Ware, and pro partner, Lindsay Arnold, and John Schneider, and pro, Emma Slater.

The news came as a shock, and certainty, both. On one hand was the shock of seeing former NFL pro, Ware, leave the dance floor, especially because of how remarkably consistent his performances have been so far. But on the other hand, it wasn't all that shocking to see Schneider get voted out, because certain fans on social media had made a huge noise about how despite being on the lower side of the leaderboard, he had managed to evade being in jeopardy all this while. Ware and his pro partner Arnold, had performed a Viennese Waltz to “Tennessee Whiskey” by Chris Stapleton, which helped them bag a solid 27 out of 30, while Schneider and Slater's Jazz to “Thank God I’m a Country Boy” by John Denver helped them score a near total of 25 out of 30.
