Hey guys, wanted to provide some more info about the time issue. When I posted my first message at 6:07 pm (East Coast) yesterday my sister's facebook message was time stamped "3hrs ago". I saw the message around 5:30 and called my sister to talk to her about it, then after i got off the phone i posted my message here (at 6:07) after creating my account. I still dont know how facebook timestamps things when people are in different time zones... but I swear this is not fake! i know that the flight information is somewhat of a problem.. there might not be enough time from a 10:55 arrival to be at ceasar's palce by 11:34...so maybe they were a decoy team sent in an hour or so early, but my sister said they were full out running, so i dunno... maybe we will just have to wait and see... the season starts in about a month and a half! ;D

Thanks artlover, There will probably be new bits of information percolating to the surface as the days go by.  Your decoy theory is a reasonable possibility.  It's funny, on the one hand the Father/Son team could be way ahead of the other two teams.  But on the other hand it could mean they are toast.

I prefer not knowing the final order until the broadcast anyway!   :lol:

Somebody help!

This is my first time posting on this site and I have pics of teams in Vegas!  Wish it hadn't taken me so long to post this, but I haven't had internet access until today.  Just read some of the more recent posts and Im hoping this will shed some light into who our F3 might be.  Was in Vegas over the weekend and a dream of mine came true, got to see the Amazing Race in action! I was on a balcony and below me, two teams came running by.  Both teams looked lost like they were at the wrong place, since they ran down the street right after.  Didn't see a third team, they could have come before I got there or went to a different spot. Tried to snap the best pictures I could.  But to figure out the time issue, this was in the early afternoon, as I had just finished up with lunch at the buffet. So this would totally fit into the flight times being discussed.  So this could confirm two of the F3. I definitely saw the guys in green with pink hair and the Globetrotter team.

Have pics, but this will only allow me to upload 256k.  How do I shrink them to put on this site?

Nice work so far everyone!

Thanks Puddin!  Curious if anyone has anymore info on who the last team could be.  Have we narrowed it down yet?

great job racefan! This looks like a good final 2/3 and it would be perfect if Cheyne and Megan were there with them!

 :lol: Not that it a big secret, but looks like the Venetian Casino Hotel railing is a match for where the racers were seen....  :snicker:   or was it the Palazzo?

a tweet sighting

  2 men running on both green shirt,1 guy has a pink hair.2 men follwed them w/ big camera & a sound microphone. didn't see the 3rd guy..
about 10 hours ago from web

The father/son had a boom guy, though, so that gives them some credibility? And if the 'Trotters were seen running with them in the same place at the same time, then... ?

 :funny:  ...it's possible they required them to check their backpacks on a full flight... maybe...  :duno:

What bothers me is why the "pink hair" team has such HUGE backpacks (full to the brim)....  Hey, wake up, this is the final city... you're racing to the finish line for $1M dollars.... lose the clothes... you're not going camping after this...   :funny:  :groan:

oh, BTW, is that the camera guy and audio guy (with microphone) way behind them?  :res:

 :ascared  this is interesting... team pink hair seems to be going down the Venetian Casino/Hotel driveway (towards/into the hotel/casino).  If they were going to the MGM Grand (as previously spoiled) then they would have crossed the driveway and continued south along Las Vegas Blvd. (the Strip).  hmmmmm... what gives?  :duno:

Boingo, they may have been going to catch a taxi at the front of the Venetian. It'd be the fastest way to get one hailed and I'm sure they could skip the line if they told everyone they were in a race...

VegasSinner sounded like he saw three teams at the wedding chapel.  (I'm even thinking that VegasSinner was the "Elvis" at the chapel.)  Has he ever described the teams he saw, or did he really see teams?

And wasn't it someone else (possibly VegasSinner) that saw racers crossing the Strip by Caesars (a little south of the Venetian).  Sounds like they are still on foot heading south along Las Vegas Blvd. (if that still is the thinking).  :res:

Teams don't check their bags I believe while in race mode but don't quote me on that and Racefan82 did mention in his email that their were camera and soundguys behind the racers .....I should have quoted him .. sorry ;D
