Post by: georgiapeach on November 12, 2011, 07:46:12 PM
LIVE sightings go here!  :hearts: And ONLY live sightings please!!
 
Comments on the sightings can go  HERE  (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,26411.msg676395.html#msg676395).
 
If you are posting a tweet, please post the tweet, the tweet time, and LINK TO the twitter user name.
Please be kind, and don't all bury the poor unsuspecting twitterer with questions, if you see another RFFer on the job, let them handle it.
 
If you are posting a FB post, please quote the post, PLEASE include the time and date, but do NOT post the poster's name. Please do send me the link and name though so we can keep a full list for the Summary thread.

If you find a BLOG, please read THIS  (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,26453.msg695252.html#msg695252) before posting.
 
If you are concerned that any info gained from any sighting, FB post or tweet may be private or confidential or just "too much too soon", feel free to PM me to ask before you post.
 
If you have a live sighting, help us as much as you can with WHO (be descriptive, what they look like, is it a male/female team for example, what color they are wearing is helpful) WHAT are they doing, WHERE (as exactly as possible..street? airport gate? be specific!), WHEN (what time zone?, exact time), and any descriptions of the action! Pictures are treasured!
And even though we all get excited, please, once we have a possible location, take the location discussion to the location thread (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,25520.0.html) and leave the Twitter zone free for incoming info! :ty3: The mods get grouchy if they have to move posts.... ;)
 
If you have a spoiler and prefer to share it privately, you can email me, my email is in my profile. Your confidentiality will be respected. You can also PM.
 
Big :ghug: to all of you who are bringing us info, we couldn't do this without you!!

I'm a bit suspicious of this one. Almost all of her tweets have been to Phil Keoghan, Jerry Bruckheimer or Jeff Probst. I have no reason to say she hasn't seen the racers at LAX, but she appears to be a super fan.

However, her website appears legitimate, so maybe she's for real.

That was my thinking too. Her description says she wants to be on TAR and can't find a partner, I think she is just a fan.

Basically this guy is saying that he saw the teams of The Amazing Race in Foz de Iguazu.. he says he is going to post photos in "their site".The problem?? is another brand new user, but he is saying that he had to create this twitter account recently to "share the information with the world".

He says that he prefers facebook and in the last tweet says that it was his last tweet.  :duno:

I just found that tweet from Juan Ortega too. I think it's highly suspicious as well, but I asked him where his web site is.
I don't think he'd be posting in Spanish from Brazil. Iguacu Falls would be a nice destination, but I don't know if you'd go there through Buenos Aires rather than Rio De Janeiro. From looking at driving directions on Google maps, it's slightly closer to Buenos Aires than to Rio De Janeiro - 1300 km vs. 1500 km, not that they would be driving it.

I tried looking for Juan Ortega on Facebook, but it's about like typing in John Smith. Thousands of hits.

Juliaca is apparently in Southeastern Peru. It was posted while we were trying to figure where TAR was going to in South America and Peru was a possibility. It looks like someone is following our chatter and trying to mislead us. So far, it's been pretty easy to spot.

I'm from brazil and can say that all these portuguese tweets (except the space one, that is the channel wich broadcasts the latin version here) are not written correctly! Looks like someone wrote the phrases on an automatic translate software and tried put it in portuguese

like I'm trying to do to write this message (I can easily understand, but hardly can speak or write in english)

About the spanish tweet saying about Fox do Iguaçu, it's possible because that is a city close about the border (Argentina and Paraguay), but I personally don't believe in it

Hoping this can help you guys

Re: TAR 20 Speculation and Discussion **of Spoilers**
« Reply #188 on: Today at 09:06:12 AM »

It was in response to some of the dialogue on this thread claiming that sightings so far may be hoaxes. I was expressing a hope that AR20 actually does visit Iguacu Falls and Punta del Este again for throwbacks.

Amazing Race is in Salta!! So cool!
7 minutes ago

Salta is in Northern Argentina in the foothills of the Andes and is Argentina's 8th largest city with about 475,000 people. This one intrigues me. According to her blog, Kristen is on a two month trip (so far) across South America.

EVE? Evenes (EVE) Norway? I'm confused.  :duno:

This one just feels right, even though it's vague enough to be a local race. She never has responded to my tweet asking for more info, but she has sent other tweets. Someone else has just asked about what she saw, so maybe that will get a response.

I've been digging for any possible information from Salta that I can find, but so far no luck. Maybe in the next day or two if we're lucky.

During my trip to Salta specifically, I met the cameras of the American show The Amazing Race.

This tweet comes from a guy who never tweeted until 15 minutes ago and has 7 tweets already. I have no idea if the French is correct, but I'm suspicious of this one. Anyone know French and want to contact this guy?

Update: He also sent this:

Also, we now have a TAR superfan from Tucuman, Argentina (TAR related tweets over the past month - could be one of us) asking KristenRoaming about her tweet. Tucuman's not far from Salta.

Thanks, Guylevesque! You already have helped. I figured that he meant voyage and it was a typo. The tweets he sent come out of google translation in correct English which is different from the ones I translated yesterday, so he may be real person and not someone trying to mislead us. But I'm not going to trust him until I see more details.

TRANSLATE: chill out.! relax man..they went towards the guarani hotel..i don't know what was next...the challenge started at 8 pm (-3 GMT)

He also said that they weren't allowed to take pictures, because the security people won't allow them! For me, it looks like a roadblock.....performing the "Bottle Dancing" which is a really cultural dance here in Paraguay.

The panoramic image of the plaza that someone linked to from paraguay3d.com shows a roughly 10 story building across the street from the plaza and it lines up well with the stairwells in the picture docol posted. Really good work going on right now! I'm impressed.

Ok....first of all, i wanna apologize for no bringing more to the table...i wish i could've done more for you guys, but i wanted you to know that i really tried my best.!

So, airport security didn't allow me to take any photos or get close to the area where the racers were....i saw at least 8 teams it was like 5:23 pm when i saw them at the check in area, specifically at the TAM Ticket Counter...this time i couldn't find out where they were heading or where was their final destination.

There was a lot of ppl surrendering them so i could barely catch them.!!

That's pretty much what happened cuz after that, i went towards them and quickly kicked off....

If it's not far and you're not busy, it might be worth taking a look, but I'd be VERY surprised if you saw anything. I suppose a team could have gotten very lost.

It looks like the teams are leaving Argentina.

Today: Buenos Aires to Bogotá. Avianca Flight 088 7.45am, getting there at 12.15pm (Colombia Time).

Bogotá?! That's cute, then?!



Maybe this is not great information, but I asked this guy once this was up, and he answered about 12 hours ago. He replied:

@DavidMagraner siii fue muy divertido! Estaban en Buenos Aires... Yo iba a Colombia y ellos creo que salian a Sao Paulo!

Haleigh kindly agreed to share her story and pics!
 
She saw Phil in Piazza Castello (Torino, Turin) Sunday Dec 4, so we are thinking these were standups so the race itself may have come thru on Monday. She was not able to get back there then. This fits nicely with our Rome airport sighting also on Dec 4.

While I was soaking up the Italian chatter of my friends, one remarked that it looked like they were filming something. This is a very famous square and there seems to be something going on there all the time. I looked closer just to try and guess and saw this pretty picture…

Yep thatis right, The Amazing Race is coming to Torino!
I don’t know what season they are filming or anything. I don’t know what this means or what else they will have to do. All I know is that the Piazza is the “pit stop for this leg of the race.” Yes I heard the words come out of mouth of Phil Keoghran. And that guy is good, but he still did at least 2 takes while we were standing there. He was also helping the crew with lighting and such. Multi talented! I was surprised by how little equipment they had all together.

Here's a pano (http://www.360cities.net/image/torino-piazza-castello-turin#207.57,7.70,70.0). From the direction of the mat, they probably expect teams to arrive from the south. It's a strange location for a pitstop; even in late fall, they were bound to be spotted.

"The most interesting as an old-reality series, a fan of Amazing Race was seen as one of the descriptions of Turin piazzoista."

"Meanwhile, others noticed the camera team, who described the backpack back from two men who put their arms around each other. Men between the TV I noticed a familiar man - Amzing Race show host Phil."

"Phil explained to the couple that they have now won two consecutive stages of a move and the men smiled broadly. So far, everything seemed like on television."

The person on twitter didn't specify where they were when they caught that clip.  Not sure if it's TAR 20 or TAR Australia, if anything.

This is their post from Facebook:
Looks like we caught a sneak-peak of this season's The Amazing Race at the airport last week! I don't know if they wanted to make it onto our flight, but we didn't see them on board.

Reading their blog, on 11/27 they were in Buenas Aries getting ready to fly back to NZ.

So...almost certainly there!

I still find this guy suspicious (only 3 tweets, all today), but I'll look forward to see any pictures that he might post. Then I'll believe.

By the way, great pictures, Weihan! Now we have a decent quality, although distant,  picture of one of the teams.

Tweeting is possible from planes since many airlines now have WiFi onboard.

This is basically what it said...

"Next we went to have lunch at a local restaurant at the Osaka Castle. We had a very satisfying lunch - Udon and hotpot!! After lunch, we saw the filming of The Amazing Race right before our very eyes. A few teams with camera crews ran past us in search of their next destination. Similarly, we ourselves starting heading towards our next destination: the Shinsaibashi, a popular shopping district in Osaka. We had an awesome time there and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves."

Today I've been in Osaka where I went to Osaka Castle where we coincidentally saw the filming of The Amazing Race at a distance and went shopping at some places. We're planning to go to an onsen tonight.

EVERYONE Please note!!

BLOGS are different from Tweets. Tweets are meant to go out to the world, they are not private.

Blogs are an author's property. They BELONG to someone.

They should be considered as copyrighted material.

RFF tries to be very responsible in crediting owners and their work.

We make EVERY effort to contact the owner of the blog and ask for permission to use their story and their pictures before using them. Most blog owners are very generous with sharing. BUT we always ask first.

Sometimes there is no way to contact a blogger, in that case we credit them, and LINK to their work.

SO please, check in with me before doing anything except linking to a blog? I can tell you where we stand with contacting the authors, or if it is new to us.

We all get excited with a new find, but ask okay? Thanks!!
 
Oval actually found the Osaka blog ...and we have been waiting (sorta) patiently to hear from them! SO hope they don't mind us Jumping the gun!

So far I've been to Hiroshima where I saw the Peace Memorial Museum and Itsukushima Shrine. Then Kobe where I had Kobe beef and a somewhat amusing experience with a power outage in the hotel. Today I've been in Osaka where I went to Osaka Castle where we coincidentally saw the filming of The Amazing Race at a distance and went shopping at some places. We're planning to go to an onsen tonight.

^_^ Greetings. I'm the author of Nippwnd and by all means, you're welcome to use my stuff if you link back to my blog. I was pretty hyped when I saw the team racing. I really wasn't able to figure out much about what was going on in the race except for what you can see in the pictures though.

Thanks to Ricardo Cabral (ncabral on Flickr) for permission to post these photos. The photos were taken at Centro Cultural Recoleta on November 30 according to his camera. I asked him if he saw any teams and he said no... but I think one photo suggests otherwise. :cmas16

If you look in the background to the middle-left area, you can see cameras and lights... or that's what I think it is. Not sure if it's related to The Amazing Race. But more importantly, if you look towards the middle-right area, you can see a possible team.

I think it might be the same team spotted by indietravel. The blue shirts, black pants and blue backpacks look like they match... That is, if the "team" in this photo is actually a team. :cmaslol

Thanks so much Linkkums! We loved your sighting...many thanks for checking in with us. If you can think of anything at all it would be a help! Were you able to see what happened to the team with Phil after they talked? DId they run off, hang around, wander off, escorted off by production? Did you see any other teams come in after that one?

Nice work Polaroid!! Thank him for us please!

What do you think that "team" was doing? Odd to see them just hang out, usually that does not happen so wonder what we are seeing?

Lurker for TAR 20, first time posting...Not sure how to do this, but I found a picture at a forum I frequent of Brendon and Rachel in an airport, probably post TAR. It doesn't have any signs of the race, so I wasn't sure if it was worth posting here, but just thought I'd pipe in.

ETA: Oops, saw in another thread after I posted this that someone else had already found and posted the pic.

Polaroid, good work on finding those pictures from Buenos Aires! I took a look through Ricardo's photostream and there appears to be one more image taken with the others. I can save it, so here's the link:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/ncabral/6552495217/in/photostream/

It doesn't appear to show any teams, but maybe others will see something in it.

In one of the pic's you see a team in blue.  There are a couple others that be might suspect to be a team.  This could be between teams showing up and Phil kicking back waiting for another team?  Could be after the PS and teams waiting for transportation to their rest accomodations?

This is the Law Enforcement team from LA.

For me to have anything for the live sightings thread, it's very unusual, but I just received a Google Blog Alert that makes reference to a possible elimination station location.

I'm just going to post the blog link sent to me in the alert (and not quote the blog itself)
http://www.datalounge.com/cgi-bin/iowa/ajax.html?t=11173285#page:showThread,11173285 (http://www.datalounge.com/cgi-bin/iowa/ajax.html?t=11173285#page:showThread,11173285)

The timing is a bit confusing, and I don't know if any other editions of TAR were being filmed that might have used that location, since we know TAR 20 finished before Christmas.

Pretty sure that this year's ES was in Mexico...possibly the same place used before in TAR 16 when we saw JJ at the local parade?

The timing is off, can't imagine any logo'd items being used though...maybe a local attempt to cash in somehow? :duno:

Thanks!!

Feel free to share/use the picture.  I saw all of the teams.  I was waiting a flight for Australia as they were coming into the terminal.  I was waiting in line with a couple of young ladies, I believe they called themselves Team Orange. As a big fan of the show, it was pretty exciting to see.  Unfortunately, I only took the one picture.

That's a great pic and good info, ZouLY. I'm confused though. We have photographs of a pitstop in Asuncion, Paraguay on 12/1 and then at a pitstop in Turin, Italy on 12/4. 

Since Team Orange (presumably the Tanaka sisters with orange bandanas), and Dave and Rachel Brown were both present in the original LAX pics taken on 11/26, is it possible that these pics were also taken on 11/26, maybe just posted on 12/2?

The fact that this photographer and our original photographer (@horchataa) were both flying to Australia leads me to suspect even more that this may have been the case.

We had a leg between day 1 and 4...almost sure. Why they would stop for 2 days...?

Another confirmation for Bueons Aires:

http://www.brittanyandtriton.com/?p=568

Our flight from South America to Africa was a long and interesting one. We ran into the cast and crew of the TV show “The Amazing Race” leaving Buenos Aires.

The title of the website is misleading "Arriving in Africa: 48 Hours in Nairobi Kenya" however the above is what
we are looking for.

Here's a sighting in Buenos Aires from a blog that I've been sitting on for a few weeks because I was hoping the bloggers could be contacted for more information. I was hinting about this one a few days ago in the speculation and discussion thread. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear at this point that they are going to respond, so I'm going to go ahead and post it.

http://derekandtess.blogspot.com/ (http://derekandtess.blogspot.com/)

As we arrived at the Recoletta Cemetery, Derek spotted camera crews and in no time we spotted Phil, the presenter of The Amazing Race ( one of my favourite shows ever!) It was so exciting! After our wander around the cemetery we spotted a couple contestants being interviewed for the show and heard one of the girls complain about the 18 hour bus ride they had just had to endure! We laughed – we’d definitely been there and done that!

At this point, the main bit of information is the 18 hour bus ride. I did some checking back then and the bus schedules showed the ride from Salta to Buenos Aires was an 18 - 20 hour trip. I tried to do it now and didn't have much luck getting working links, so this information is coming from my memory.

The blog also had a picture of Phil and about a half dozen other people huddled around a camera. It's interesting, but it doesn't provide much information about the race. However, if you ever wanted to see a good look at one of the cameras they use, this is your chance.

Interesting, it looks like the camera operator is using one of those things that is a vest with an arm sticking out that holds the camera. He wouldn't want to have to run around holding all of that stuff otherwise!

I'm thinking this isn't the gear that the cameramen following the teams use. This most likely is the gear that gets used at the pit stops and at roadblocks and detours when they can get set up in one area and don't have to worry about running around chasing people.

I was just looking at this pic from Paraguay again and saw it from maybe a different way. I'm thinking that the red is Phil and the greeter, the blue is Ralph/Vanessa, and the purple is the twins.

I agree.

Adding... who is in  the blue box? ???

The question is...are Vanessa/Ralph waiting their turn? Are there other teams behind? Or could they have just stepped off the mat?

All unknowns....

Light blue box seems like a cameraman and some onlookers.

I think it is one of those situations where two teams have arrived at once and Phil checking them in at once. It would be odd to have one of them eliminated when they are that close together, in an early leg.

If the second team we see is last, they could be being eliminated, close or not. We just don't know.
