I'm starting to get a weird feeling about this seasons cast.  I thought it was funny thet one team was professional poker players, while another seems to be (former synchronized swimmers/Olympians) circus performers,.  Now I see a third may be Harlem Globetrotters.  hmmmm...  couild we possibly have "stunt casting"?  All athletes (albeit it's a stretch calling poker players athletes) or professional performers.  Possibly a "sports" theme.  Tough to say with only a few teams scoped out.  I hope BVM has not totally sold out for ratings, and included a few "ordinary" people to the mix.  :groan:  Just a thought.... carry on.  ;D

I thinkt the fact that we know the Harlem Globetrotters and Professional Poker Players identities is because they are in a way famous due to their profession. The fact that there are still 8 unspoiled contestant spoilers meant there could be 8 "ordinary" people teams mixed amongst the cast, whom non of us knew and can't get a clue who they are.. even though we have their photos. (the Jessica co-ed team) LOL!

Are you sure. The bags say 12!
Well based on the bags we can absolutely see 11, but above the R in the RFF watermark, if the bags are placed equal distant apart then there should be another bag in the spot where we see people standing.

Checking a few other seasons of the race, I find no evidence of them ever breaking the bags into two sections.  All seem space in a row (or arc) of equal distance.

But on the car front, production always has a least one spare on sight.  And based off of two season (and others) all 12 cars (11 teams and a spare) are lined up.

Yea, don't they usually have an extra car? I would think the extra car goes to Phil and his camera crew?

Maybe 12 cars incase 1 breaks down? For instance I remember the big deal about the extra car for TAR8 and someone started a rumor here about a secret extra team  :lol:
Plus the black car on the end is oddly parked don't you think?

I think I'm going to like the poker players since there's an Asian-American woman on the team!  And of course, I want an all-female team to win!

I'm new here as well and want to say thanks to everyone for the "amazing" work!  Reading what happens here while the race goes on just makes anticipating the start more exciting!  Thanks!

But on the car front, production always has a least one spare on sight.  And based off of two season (and others) all 12 cars (11 teams and a spare) are lined up.

I agree with mswood. It's too difficult to count the cars properly, and if the bags are the correct distances apart, that will be 12 teams. To me 12 teams fits with a two-hour premier better, because they could do the double-elim thing they had in TAR 10. If it's only 11 teams, then the first episode is definitely (and sadly) going to be the first two legs.

It's also possible that the 12th "team" could be crouched like Steve & Linda last season. Remember how short they looked?

I'll be wrong, though, just because puddin says 11. :res:

They are already doing well.  In the shot of them at the AA checkin they already have their tix and are just hanging around.  They must have arrived on an earlier shuttle.  It's already been said but I'll chime in too:  they are good with numbers and mental challenges.  They were probably the 1st team out of the challenge at the startline.   ;)

Who is this team?

I think her name is Mikka.

They are the 9th team from the left in the line up.

Since you were there watching...what did the challenge involve? The picture doesn't reveal too much.

awesome work guys thanks afterglorock!

No Problem!  Glad to help...just pissed i didn't bother snapping any photos.  There was another team that came through my gate area asking to borrow a laptop with internet access..  It was a male/female in their mid-late 20's... didn't look at him much, but she was a hot blonde!  I wanna say they were wearing purple...??

She seems to be wearing something purpleish!  :lol:

They also seem to be taking the later UA Flight!

There is an African American team who play for Globetrotters called Nate & Herbert.
The man wearing red ho has a stubble is called James Stockdale and his friend is called Weylan Dock as I am his cousin.
The poker friends are called Maria & Tiffany.

From Philiminater on sucks. We know two of the three but the third one James and Weylan I wanted to show you!

Fake or not?

I am sure Chateau is right (after all he witnessed it), I just find it odd after reviewing every season, that the bags are always aligned in a pattern without a break.

Of course, the change could do with a new camera set up, or they may yet not be in final position (which based on the photo I assume they aren't quite ready to start them racing.

Yep I am pretty sure it is 11 though we have:
2 F/F Teams
2 or 3 M/M Teams
5 or 6 M/F Teams

Are the teams balanced!

Philiminater on sucks is known as a fake to us and I would take anything he says with a grain of salt.

OMG
There is actually a young,fit Male/Male teams (well at list the african american team is), I don't think they casted "normal" male teams since season 10. :jumpy:

Call me crazy but amI the only one that thinks the skinny/overweight grey team might be a F/F team?
they both seem rather small compare to the other contestants.

      OMG! They're a hot lesbian couple and circus performers too! Synchronize swimmers for some Vegas show. Too much fun eavesdropping!

3 minutes ago from web

http://twitter.com/bob_bixby

She's a lesbian, performs in Cirque du Soleil (circus), is a synchronize swimmer for some Las Vegas show too. The only problem is that she looks "too old" to be hot. But she does look hot at her age though.

I think this really could be one of the blue racers who are at the second from the left in the line up.

Perhaps the Globetrotters were casted ā la Mel & Mike?
Gotta say: props to all the spoiling team, thanks for the info and thanks above all to Chateau for the pics. Let's hope WRP gave a raise to last season's casting team and that they hit gold this season as well.

This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

 :colors. Hey. I'm new to the RFF, but i thought I'd jump in and help discuss. In response to the cars, even though there are 12, the one on the end seems to be smaller and the back is shaped differently. Hope this has helped!
