The problem this season is that based on what we have seen so far, I really LIKE them all, and don't want anyone to go home first... :'( :'( :'(

Ain't that the truth, Peach. As it stands now, I think I am going to be sad with every Philmination.

More from SwissMiss08 in reply to my questions.

From: SwissMiss08

I first approached the plaza piazza sant'antonio around 6pm (it gets dark here around 5:30pm now).  It is a little plaza in the old city (citta vecchia) which has some parking spots.  I tried to park my car and was waved away.  And there was a priest standing in front of the church, outside.  They did not appear to have been standing there for long.  It looked like they were just getting set up.

I drove past, parked, and walked back past around 6:15.  I saw a team, a short woman and a tall man with backpacks, frantically talking to the priest (or perhaps frantically talking to each other near the priest).  The woman was the one talking.  They may have been middle aged, not sure, I was never very close.

The restaurant I was heading to was closed until 7pm, so I turned around and walked past the church/plaza again, this time only the priest and a few others were standing around.  I went down to the Piazza Grande and sat in a bar waiting for the restaurant to open.

Around 7, I was again heading up towards the plaza AGAIN when we were passed by a team heading down the street, towards the vicinity of the Piazza Grande or the castle, we thought.  This team was two younger people (early to mid 20s).  I think the woman I saw was blond, but not sure.  She was definitely pretty and tall - guessing 5'9 or more.  The "producer" (ie 4th person in group, not carrying a backpack or camera) stopped her to adjust her shirt or necklace as they walked down the street.

After this second encounter we figured out it was the amazing race, so we walked back to the plaza, yet AGAIN after dinner around 8:45.  The plaza was empty, no priest.  But all the parking spots were cordoned off.  This was not the case previously.  So we wondered if more teams were coming, and the "priest" had just gone inside to get warm.

We then walked down to the Piazza Grande and the Castle, but neither of those locations was in use.


6:15 Team = Linda/Steve Cole????

7:00 Team = Jennifer/Preston????

I really don't think so I would lean more towards Brad and Victoria if older and Amanda and Kris if mistaken. Preston and Jennifer are my choice for 7:00 because they I believe end up on the second flight with Margie and Luke possibly

7:00  She was definitely pretty and tall - guessing 5'9 or more. 

Well, I don't think anyone seeing Brad/Victoria standing next to each other would say she was short and he is tall. They are close to same height. The only couple with really difference in height is Linda/Steve. Linda is 52, older than Victora.

I think somewhere I read that Jennifer is tall, 5'9" tall. I don't think Amanda is anywhere near that tall, but we will see soon.

What is the height difference between Margie and Luke. They would also fit the description, given that it was in poor light conditions

Luke's taller, but not by much. Both seem to be of average hight. Looking through the M/F teams, the best posibilities are Linda & Steve, Brad & Victoria, or Amanda & Kris.  Which also leaves Jennifer as our tall woman, as expected.

I suspect the 6:15 pm team was either Linda & Steve (but they wind up being the first out anyway) or Amanda & Kris.  Jennifer & Preston are probably the team that arrive at 7 pm.

Are Amanda and Kris middle aged?..... The witness described them as, short woman, tall man and middle aged.

 :lol: They also quoted "It was 6:15pm and I saw a couple short women and tall man heading to.....They looked to be older but I couldn't really tell and I could be wrong"

I think at 6:15 when it is really rather dark they could be mistaken! And I really can't see Steve and Linda ahead of Preston and Jennifer by 45 mins indicating Steve and Linda make the first flight and Preston and Jenn miss the first and make the last!

Nah, I think it's either Steve & Linda or Brad & Victoria.  Both Steve and Brad are taller than Linda and Victoria, respectively.

Agreed!  It's a lot more eye-catching than that last one was!  I'll definitely take that over TAR13's postcard!

This should probably be in Media but on a whim I checked for Phil on Bonnie Hunt and saw this and had to  :wohoo:  :wohoo:

The Bonnie Hunt

Friday, February 13th - Joan Rivers
Friday, February 13, 2009
Joan Rivers ('Men Are Stupid...'): It's Bonnie's Valentine's Day show and if anyone has an opinion on love you can be sure Joan has some choice words to share. If the title of her new book, 'Men Are Stupid...' is any indication then this should be interesting!

Phil Keoghan ('Amazing Race'): It's Bonnie's favorite reality show and it's back with a whole new cast and new race. The first episode airs this Sunday and Bonnie's pleased to welcome back one of her favorites, host Phil Keoghan, to tell us what's in store for the contestants this time around.

Ready for my list with spoilers taken into account? (Revised!)

11: Steve & Linda (no evidence beyond leg one)
10: Mel & Mike (guess)
9: Amanda & Kris (I just feel an early elimination from them, for some reason) (guess)
8: LaKisha & Jennifer (guess)
7: Brad & Victoria (guess)
6: Christie & Jodi (guess)
5: Margaret & Luke (guess)
4: Preston & Jennifer (orange was spotted)
3: Mark & Michael
2: Cara & Jaime
1: Victor & Tammy

Belle Book, I don't hate asians, but I am just afraid they will be too Nick & Starr-ish, and I also want to wipe the Spanglers from my memory just like you, Ashe.

The car numbers are not usually the same as team numbers, just to clear that up. They are just randomly chosen by the teams.

Also, I have noticed that some numbers seem to have similar teams. If you look at the number 7:

S6: Lori & Bolo
S7: Rob & Amber
S9: Eric & Jeremy
S10: Tyler & James
S11: Rob & Amber
S12: Ari & Staella (never actually saw this tag, just went through the process of elimination to get it)
S13: Nick & Starr
S14: *unknown* (I would guess Tammy & Victor, Amanda & Kris, or Preston & Jennifer)

It seems like the number 7 indicates a tough or imposing team. And 2 is almost always a F/F team. But I don't know. Take it for what it's worth.

Preston & Jennifer (orange was spotted): that spoiler was unable to be confirmed, unfortunately, so take it with a grain of salt....

I am also being told that car #'s should be considered random, darn it! It was a good thought, though!

I'll keep the orange spoiler in mind, but I still feel they will make it to that part of the race, so I won't change it.

I have analyzed the numbers long enough to notice that the car numbers are not in any way significant (the first team to get a car doesn't even have to take #1), so that idea can be considered dead.
