BEHIND-THE-SCENES:

Well, I visited the Ilocos Region (Sur and Norte) here in the Philippines way back in 2016, I have to make this wishlist leg because this is Part 2 of “The Amazing Race (USA) Wishlist Route IDEA #2” and I also visited some places of the Ilocos Region, so I'll put some for this wishlist leg.



I have to put Vigan Emapandas after the Detour task because I also tried one of those and it tastes delicious!



The “War Code” roadblock is actually a recycled Roadblock task from ...
... Season 4 of “The Amazing Race: Asia” in Leg 10: Gyeongju, South Korea (“Who can crack the Warrior Code?”/Warrior Code), ...
... TAR: Australia/The Amazing Race: Australia also recycled this task in Season 2, Leg 11 in Beijing, China at the Great Wall of China, ...
... the reason why I made this “War Code” roadblock is I didn't The Amazing Race: Philippines' recycled Roadblock from TAR: Asia Season 4, Leg 10 (Indonesia → South Korea) for Season 2, Episode 4 (Pangasinan → La Union): “Who can crack the Surfer’s Code”/Surfer’s Code; because ...
... it's not historical like from TARAsia S4 and TARAus S2 and it's over-recycled, I wanted something like the Roadblock sets in World War 2 for the recycled Roadblock taskpassing through Japanese WW2 soldiers (WAR CODE) (I can also put this task for my upcoming concept: ‘The Amazing Race: Pinoy Rush’). ...
... As for the where you get the clue from the (Japanese') base Roadblock picture, this was taken from The Amazing Race: Philippines Season 2, Leg 4 (Pangasinan → La Union) (I have to photoshop the clue to remove the word “PHILIPPINES”).



The “return Lam-Ang’s rooster to the Pit Stop task with a rooster prop is actually from ...
... Season 4, Episode 3 of the 90’s Nickelodeon revival game show of “Legends of the Hidden Temple” for adult contestants; and aired on The CW between October 10, 2021-January 23, 2022; titled: ...
... The Amazing Talking Rooster of Lam-Ang or The Ilocano Legend of Lam-Ang”, ...
prop (left) and A.I. (right)
... well I have to use an A.I. photo generator using ArtGuru to make the prop rooster 
golden; ...
... and also when I was at the Kapurpurawan Rock Formation in Ilocos in 2016, where I saw a statue of a man fighting an alligator or crocodile was actually the Ilocano folklore legend and hero “Lam-Ang” because come to think of it LOTHT Season 4, Episode 3 focuses on the legend of “Lam-Ang”.


Since we have the Express Pass back in Season 36 35 of The Amazing Race: USA, I might as well add it to the wishlist leg.
