One day version of The Amazing Race

Posted on 27. Sep, 2007 by Jonathan Cherry in Branding

Have you ever watched that TV show ‘The Amazing Race’ and thought that it must be a radical way to see a country?

Well a new urban game project / tour company have set up something new and exciting in the US called Urban Dare. 

Essentially it’s a competition that takes teams of two and sends them out into a city to
complete various challenges in what is essentially a modern scavenger
hunt. Part photo hunt, part trivia, part dares, teams solve clues to
reach checkpoints where they must complete challenges and document it
with a digital camera before receiving a ‘passport stamp’ and moving
onto the next checkpoint. [via PSFK]

Great idea and beats the pants out of sitting in a bus and seeing a city go by. We always had a bit of a dream to take part in the Amazing Race, but if Urban Dare started in Cape Town we’d be just as happy.
