if this is true then I hope the finish line will be in Hoover Dam just a few miles southeast of Las Vegas, and there's a bridge that is now under construction just in front of that famous dam in which I'd found this news article from BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8186262.stmand btw, if Tiffany and Michelle are on the final 3 [hopefully], then it is a big advantage for them due to in fact that Las Vegas is their home city, so there's a possible that they could win big there and being the 1st all female team to win $1 million for the 1st time in TAR history!!! So, let's cross our fingers and pray to the Lord that they'll on the final 3 and win the big prize!  |

FINAL TASK: Play poker in Las vegas, once they accumulated $100, 000 they must now run to the finish line! Maria/Tiffany wins!  [No evidence, Just speculation.] |

Yeah, it would totally work out in their favor (and we'd finally get a F/F winner; amazing stuff given the field this season). Except, not really, if you've followed the series from 2001 to present. |

No one wins in their hometown. NO ONE, I TELL YOU! I actually hope the leg will run through the famous main road... whatever it's called.  |

That's probably why they chose Vegas for their final destination. The last three teams flew in this afternoon at 1:45pm, their clue was to head to a wedding chapel on the Strip, walk in on a wedding taking place, and get the clue from the "King". Once they arrived in the chapel, there was a couple set up to pretend to get married by Elvis, Elvis then gave them the final clue which was to make their way over to the MGM hotel at the other end of the Strip to win. I have no proof. You'll just have to take my word for it, a total stranger, that lives and works in sin city. Thank you, thank you very much. |

Question, how come the leg looks so easy and located in just one place (The strip to be exact). (I mean, where;s the detour and the final roadblock?)? Usually, Final Legs are the most tense of all legs right? |

Question, how come the leg looks so easy and located in just one place (The strip to be exact). (I mean, where;s the detour and the final roadblock?)? Usually, Final Legs are the most tense of all legs right? If VegasSinner has it right (and it sounds possible), there was probably more to the stop at the wedding chapel than he described and they probably had another task before that. As I recall, it's not very far from McCarran Airport to the MGM so as described, it won't take long, although traffic will provide tension. I hope they do something outside of the city, maybe a bungee jump at Hoover Dam, or water ski on Lake Mead or even search for dead mobsters in the desert.  For what it's worth, I took a look at the archived images of the MGM Grand webcam (it's Cam 2) http://www.earthcam.com/usa/nevada/lasvegas/# and I didn't see any sign of the racers, but that doesn't mean much. There's also a wedding chapel cam (cam 1) and it did show a couple of weddings, one with Elvis, but no racers there either. It did appear that the camera was off for a portion of the day and only showed black images. |

Albuquerque?  Is the only scheduled flight at 1:45 PM. No international flights at all from 1-2PM.  The only International flight that I can find which is even close is this one: LGW London VS 43 Virgin Atlantic Airways 2:10 PM (scheduled) 1:52 PM (actual arr time) T-2 Landed On-time 744 |

I can confirm that VS43 was the only flight from Europe arriving between noon and 3pm at 152pm. There were also 2 flights from Vancouver:
WS988 at 115pm
AC544 at 233pm
That's it for non-US originations.
VegasSinner, how can it be that teams were spotted on the Strip at approximately noon PDT yet were still on an airplane at the same time? I'd like your reconciliation of those two divergent data points.
