If I recall correctly, we didn't know last season either, even though we had at least three sightings in SF. I remember Peach figuring it out just about the same time that CBS began airing a promo that showed Candlestick Park.
It's hard to believe that there have been no reported sightings in LA, but maybe they self drove from the airport and had challenges indoors.
I was also thinking that even though production was seen at LAX, the teams might have flown in elsewhere, like John Wayne or Burbank. It would have meant convoluted flights from Seoul, but it could have happened.

I have no idea where the race ended (good job CBS!! :jam: ) but end it did... and that gives us all about 6 months to figure it out!! :jumpy:
For those who think the fun is over....think again!
It is just beginning! It is a very recent thing that has allowed us to track the race as well as we do in "live time". Until a few seasons ago...almost all of our spoilers came days to weeks after the race had run...from not tweets and twitters but good old detective work...slogging through photos and blogs and reading travel sites and searching for the littlest mention of something...that might lead to something else ...that might lead us to the spoiler. In some ways...that is still the most fun. Things turn up in the ODDEST places and ways. And what fun would it be if we knew every little detail right now anyway? We can now sit back, reevaluate all the info (and mis-info :lol: ) we received and start the real work. It won't come as fast and as furious as the last few weeks (thank goodness, honestly killer race fatigue has nothing on RFF spoiler fatigue :funny:) but it will come. And I am southern to the core...and I believe completely in "the kindness of strangers". People are amazingly generous and willing to share their stories and their photos and their time. And then later, we'll have screencaps to analyze.
Spoilers WILL come. And we'll have fun finding them. And any of y'all can come play "spoilers" too. And if a find can be shared, it will be. But I personally will never share anything that will break a confidence, or do something that I believe might actually hurt the show... And if anyone doesn't like that? Tough tooties, go find your own. :neener:
And you are right about Candlestick Park, chills. We had the general area narrowed down to "Hunter's Point" around the time of the actual filming, then Chateau and I speculated after our excursion that Candlestick Park was one of two likely sites. I messed around with that intermittently, then was finally able to get the permit confirmation evidence on the very day CBS aired the promo. I still laugh at all the time and phone calls I could have saved myself if I had only known that CBS was going to spoil it themselves! :lol: In the "good old days" :wise that NEVER would have happened!
Okay... That's it from me. Back on topic before TexasLady comes after us! :vader:

Speculating: tasks in Sweden. Next Saturday, June 19 (tomorrow), there will be the wedding of Victoria, Crown Princess of Sweden. And that is VERY big thing in Sweden and big media happening in all over Europe. So I can imagine that TAR had some tasks that had something to do with the royals?
