If TAR 15 goes as planned, and swine flu gets affected by it, maybe they'll start in Florida, LA and NY have more cases than any other state in the US right now... so I would doubt they'ed start there. THAT IS, if the threat of swine flu is pandemic - and the race is continued as scheduled.
Otherwise, prepare to see LAX again! :yess: :jumpy: :hearts: :funny: :funny:

Neobie, my answer is YES, they will start Amazing Races at places other than enar Los Angeles. It a cost saving since World Race Productions is in the greater LA area, but viewersa are getting sick of the LA start.
TARAsia Fan:
San Diego would be a nice place to start. Bakersfield would be a nice place to start. Big Sur would be a nice place to start. If they want to stay in CA for the start, there are plenty of other cities besides Los Angeles to start.
This is the reverse of 24 when they kept using LA for crises until they finally went to DC this season. TAR used to use different cities until they started with LA for several cycles now.

It could always be San Fran...

The actual history of Amazing Race starts in California is:
AR4 - Los Angeles
AR5 - Santa Monica
AR7 - Long Beach
AR12, 13, and 14 - Los Angeles
I consider Long Beach and Santa Monica (completely surrounded except for the ocean by the city of Los Angeles) to be greater Los Angeles
So major california metropolitan areas never hosting thet start of an Amazing Race are:
San Francisco
Sacramento
San Jose
San Diego
Each one of those is important enough and has the air tranpsortation to get teams overseas without much difficulty. I think we will see one or mroe of those in AR15 through AR20
