One side of me says I want to see a season of teams purely made of children race in an official TAR, but the other thought that comes into mind is the simplicity of tasks and locations due to it being a kid edition, so I'm quite torn with my kids edition wish. ??? :umn:

I'll make a route later, though. :grins:

Like I said, THERE IS NOTHING IN ARIZONA.

PERIOD.

Okay, fellow RFF'ers, I understand that many of you live around the United States and around the world, so I would not understand you all to understand that Arizona is truly terrible. But you must be thinking, "Brannockdevice, it has the Grand Canyon!" Why yes my friends, it does. Our official nickname is The Grand Canyon state! Let me tell you about the Grand Canyon. You drive for a few hours to get there, and you can see this MASSIVE canyon through the pine trees, and you get to the lookouts and it's truly breathtaking! For five minutes. Think about it. You go there to look at a giant hole in the ground. That's it. After 20 minutes of standing in the heat, you're bored out of your mind regretting that you even came. And then there's the Arizona heat. It is common for the summer high to get to the 120°s Fahrenheit or upper 40°s Celsius. My mom told me that the day she moved here it was 123°F (50°C). It is brutal. Oh and don't get me started on people here. Arizonans are some of the most racist people you'll ever meet. About 5 years ago a law was passed here that LEGALIZED racial profiling of Hispanics to make sure that they weren't illegal immigrants. It was terrible. The Supreme Court of the United States had to intervene and declare the law unconstitutional. People here hate Mexicans. It honestly makes me sick to my stomach. And then there's the homophobia. Religion is very big here, and of course homophobia follows. When I came out of the closet earlier this year, there was an absolute barrage of odd looks and ended friendship. People here literally KILL themselves because their fellow community members won't accept them for their sexuality.

Please avoid Arizona people. I know you just want to include it in these fantasy routes, but I thought it was something you all should know.

I just thought that maybe Arizona would be a good place to visit, just because it is snubbed by TAR

You do realize that TAR 4 finale visited Arizona? Maybe TAR production had just realized Arizona's problems after the race ended.

Hey guys? Unless you really need to requote some of these LONG route posts to make a point, please watch your requotes?

It slows down the pages for those reading on mobile devices something awful...so just be careful please? You can always say, in reply to Brannock,etc. Thanks!!

I would like to apologize to everyone for my frankness, but I truly believe that the state I live in is retched. This show we watch is called The Amazing Race. Arizona is not amazing.

I have a totally different opinion of Arizona. :lol: I think the state has superior natural beauty (Grand Canyon/Sedona/Saguaro NP/Havasu Falls/Canyon de Chelly/The Wave). I know one Arizonan, and she's a great person. Unfortunately, there are racist/unaccepting people everywhere; I'm sorry you had to deal with them. :(
