Amazing Race Anime References?

Can I add this fact to the trivia section. It might be important to anime fans:

* On Leg 11 Detour, one of the addresses BJ & Tyler visited was the offices of Gonzo Animation, with its logo prominently shown when the team received their clue. -上村七美 | talk 12:43, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

The Detour was Maiden or Messenger. In Maiden, teams had to transport a young Japanese woman in a traditional Japanese palanquin for 1/3 mile to a tea ceremony pavilion.

I've visted a few cosplay discussion sites, and they are complaining about the 20 second exposure of Gothic Lolita on the show. I'm assuming that this is what their talking about. Does anyone have screenshots to prove this??--293.xx.xxx.xx 01:47, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Eric and Jeremy's maiden was a Gothic Lolita and Ray & Yolanda's was ko-gal (I think). I don't have a screenshot, but I have seen the show and I did see what they are talking about. - 上村七美 | talk 01:56, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure about where BJ and Tyler went, but it was some office building.

BJ and Tyler speak japanese too.

The Amazing Race isn't Tyler's only travelling claim to fame. In 2004, he walked the whole length of Japan to impress his Japanese girlfriend as well as make a documentary about the experience called Kintaro Walks Japan. By the end of the trip, he was often running into many locals who already knew him as "Kintaro" from the TV news.
