So does this basically confirm two things we've waffled over? :D South Korea is indeed our last country, and there was no country between Brazil and Tanzania.

waffled? I think we knew there was a leg between Brazil & Stone Town = Dar es Salaam , and Seoul we had after Ninh Binh ???

found it ... I think Seoul was edited out *future location spoiler*
I think Ninh Binh leg is semifinal leg because my friend tells that tonight (Vietnam time), all teams will buy tickets to America   *location removed** Hanoi. They are still in Ninh Binh right now.
My friend asks the information again and he confirms that teams will move to Korea by American Airlines.

My goodness these are all our cities, arranged in alphabetical order!

Alesund
Athens
Dar es Salaam
Hanoi
Lake Como
Ninh Binh
Panama City
Sao Paulo
Seoul
Venice
Zanzibar

No leg between Seoul and Chicago? ??? Where did all that time go?
Good EYES!!  :hearts:

No Arachova, Greece :'( was afraid of that ...... maybe the schedule changed?

I think it's a rough, they visited Gamboa in Panama but that's not there. If they included all towns the lost would become too long so it doesn't mean Arachova/Delphi weren't visited.

The flags above the scoreboard appear to be the normal ones at Wrigley, giving the names of baseball teams. Probably not important for us.

Just a little history lesson on the flag mast atop the scoreboard at Wrigley: the pennants represent the fifteen Major League Baseball teams and are hoisted from left to right (win-loss) and top to bottom based on their seasonal stats. On Thursday, the Chicago Cubs lost to the Mets. There is usually a pennant of the Cubs logo flying in the middle of the mast after a victory. (They are playing against the Mets again live right now on an away game.) And so nobody messes with that! :lol: I doubt the officials of Wrigley gave Bertram and Elise permission to allow teams to screw around with the mast.

I checked Twitter and Instagram tonight and have found a possibility that the Finish Line COULD have been at Soldier Field. No recent postings of the location in the past 15 hours except last night's Guns N Roses rock concert. There is a concert tomorrow with the same group so perhaps their entourages cleaned up their sets overnight or in the morning just to make room for TAR? Fingers crossed.

The smartphone could possibly be borrowed from the woman beside Team 3 Female, If you look at the pic in the lives, there's a woman wearing heels.

If amazing race gives teams hats and fanny packs that blatantly say THE AMAZING RACE, they should give them shirts that blatantly say WE ARE DECOYS. :funny: :funny: :funny:

Are we able to trust this tweet to confirm Milton Lee Olive Park (close to Navy Pier) as a race destination?

With a beautiful Chicago scenery in the background at the overlook for a photo finish and in an "isolated" part of the city near the city's water treatment center, I could definitely see this as a Finish Line location more so than Soldier Field!

Sidetrack convo: I remember training for a marathon at that park with a friend, and after finishing my regimen one day, I raced her to the shoreline of the nearby Ohio Street Beach. I fell face first into Lake Michigan that day. :lol:

I agree, really fits the bill for a TAR finish line.  Besides, the Wrigley field tip was 100% true.  :snicker:

Oh my goodness, the crowns have the Vienna Beef logo! :trampb: I will wholeheartedly assume the teams had a task dealing with the Vienna beef hot dogs back at the diner. Best local dish you will ever eat in the Lake View community of Chicago! (Sorry Hutch's Lakeview Skillet!)
