[Macaroons]

Thank you to peach and to everyone else for their hard work this season. 

And thanks to the crew for continuing to make the show. 

It is all appreciated

[KingCrimson88]

So y'all missed me?? 

Yes...TAR 18 is officially 100% done....

Someone has resolved their Unfinished Business while 10 other teams have twice the amount!!

There will be lots to talk about. But not tonight!

Do you know who won?

Do you even know who was in the F3?

It's policy:   Even if we did know, we would not spill it.  Yet.   

Hate to sound ungrateful and all, but...what exactly is the reasoning behind this?

[Dobby]

Imagine, right now.. we only know who the first 3 teams eliminated are... as opposed to knowing the F3...

There are some people who only watch TAR because of the teams they like... imagine if everyone knew who the F3 are... it could potentially affect ratings... and it does not help too IF the F3 consist of 3 teams which the audiences generally do not like.

Just my two cents.

Not exactly a live sighting but spotted an Easter egg in TAR 17 finale. As soon as Mallory says can we do it again, it does that chime thing and zooms in. Watch it and you will see what I mean

I know we won't have any more live sightings, but I would like us to leave this topic only for ACTUAL SPOILERS. Thanks!

[georgiapeach]

Yes and thanks!

Salzburg is a definite leg...will qualify the dates for now as sometime after the 5th. Waiting for hopeful confirmation.

Not sure if this in addition to a Swiss leg, or INSTEAD of??

Salzburg is definite? I didn't see any spoilers for any place in Austria other than Vienna.

Apparently a secret, unposted spoiler........

And darn...I adore Salzburg!

It's a little complicated. There is a sighting in Salzburg but it has not been confirmed and in fact is not of a team.
There's some conflicting info and Peach is trying to contact the sighter while still allowing them anonymity.

[georgiapeach]

See the LOCATIONS thread... we have Liechtenstein instead.

Apparently 7 mile bridge was closed on Monday for filming the Amazing Race.
Not sure - but I think its a 7 mile bridge just outside of Marathon Fl that has been replaced by a new bridge.
The old bridge is used for walking now.

Do you think it was used for a task or for the finish line? Yes the old one is pedestrian only and the new one is a highway bridge. FYI this is quite a ways from Miami and Key Biscayne.
Great find, BTW!

Pigeon Key would be a great place to hide the Finish Line. There's a photo on Wikipedia which is taken from the vehicular 7-Mile Bridge, and you could fit the Finish Line behind that building, trees, and the ramp to the island.

Plus, the green lawn looks to be the right shade for TAR to use

I don't know if this Tweet is relevant or if it has been mentioned but it is the only one that I found with a couple of searches:

Well since you did not post the orginal sender of the tweet......I can only surmise that it was from someone from here asking if she saw the teams in the airport.

From her posting history....it appears she is on a cruise this week. If I was in MIA people watching, I would be one floor up in the main concourse...not on the lower level where people exit from Immigration/Customs.....its pretty barren and isolated there.

:O found this!! Hope it hasn't been posted! Its from Wednesday.

"Just met Cord and Jet from Amazing Race in MIA Airport awesome guys. Be jealous"

Considering all the season 18 teams were there, it sounds like they aren't in the final 3, or they wouldn't be talking to people IMO.

Seems like it.Sad,I wanted them to win Maybe someone can contact them and ask whether they
 seemed like they were racing?Maybe they spoke to the cowboys in a queue or something?

EDIT:I can't find that tweet.

What is the source?

That totally depends.  Since the teams were on an international flight into Miami, Jet-Cord might have been waiting for their camera crew and equipment to clear customs.  Or TPTB were holding all the teams until all camera crews cleared.

I saw the original post...it was at 1230 and just said people watching in the Miami airport...so doubtful that it was anything as our guys were much earlier.
