Donald Driver Brings Mirror Ball Trophy to Green Bay

Green Bay Packer's wide receiver Donald Driver took home the coveted mirror ball trophy on the season finale of ABC’s Dancing With the Stars.

He may have wrapped up the trophy Monday night during his country-themed freestyle dance. And he and pro partner Peta Murgatroyd repeated the feat Tuesday with his shirt-free cha-cha, earning a perfect 30 from the judges and a total of 89 for the two nights.

Driver adds to the list of football players who have had success on the show.

Driver defeated Welsh opera star Katherine Jenkins, who was runner-up, and Latin actor and model William Levy to become the third football star (after Emmitt Smith and Hines Ward) to win on DWTS.

It's looking like next season's DWTS will feature stars from previous seasons.

A two-hour season finale tonight where we will crown a new Dancing With the Stars champ.

Will it be Ricki, Rob or J.R.?  We will know very soon.

Here we go.

After an opening number with many of the current and past pros, we see all the former contestants parading around the stage.

Then a recap of last night's performances we get to see Lady Antebellum with their first performance of the night. 

Next some dancing.  In this round, the contestants get to redo a dance from one of the past weeks that they want to improve on.  Ricki and Derek are up first and they select their "Psycho" tango.  Another great performance.  Len called it a memorable dance and loved it.  

Rob and Cheryl are up next with their foxtrot.  This was the dance that Rob dedicated to his dad.  We'll get scores after everyone is completed.

Next up is the popular J.R. Martinez and Karina.  They decide to do a jive and make a few changes from when they did it the first time.  It was a little rough in spots, but lots of energy and fun was to be had. 

Here's the scoring.  Rob and Cheryl get 26 points, J.R. and Karina get 28, and Ricki and Derek pull in another 30 points.

We are about to see one couple get eliminated.  Factoring in audience votes with the judges totals we see that Ricki and Derek in a surprise are eliminated.

J.R. and Rob now will have to do one final dance, and it will be an instant dance.

We are down to two couples and one trophy is going to be awarded.  Both teams are going to do a samba to a Ricky Martin song.  J.R. will go first and Rob will go second.

Now, since we are about half-way through the show we look back at the eliminated contestants. 

While the couples are hard at work learning their instant dance, more eliminated contestants hit the dance floor.  That included Carson Kressley dancing with guys.  The fun continues with Chaz Bono coming up. 

Chaz was followed by a performance bt David Arquette and Kym Johnson.

Up next are the instant sambas.  J.R. first and as usual it was high energy.  Rob's was flashy, but not all that difficult.  The judges had some nice things to say and it's going to be a photo finish.

Here are the final set of scores for J.R. and Karina.  They get 30 out of 30.

Rob and Cheryl's scores are coming up.  Rob gets a 30 as well.

The mirror ball trophy is about to be awarded.  Three months of hardwork and lots of fan's votes results in J.R. and Karina being popular winners in Season 13.

Congrats to J.R. and Karina.
