Rivers Casino to Host 'The Amazing Race' Casting Call on Tuesday

"The Amazing Race" is looking for contestants in Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Oct. 11.

KDKA-TV is holding a casting call for the reality game show at the upstairs banquet hall of The Rivers Casino in the city's North Shore area. The casino's Rivers Edge Players Club members can audition from 3 to 5 p.m., and public auditions will take place from 5 to 8 p.m.

In "The Amazing Race," teams of two people race around the world in competition with other teams. The CBS program utilizes progressive elimination in that the last team to arrive at a designated checkpoint leaves the game. 

The race starts in a particular U.S. city. Teams must then follow clues and instructions to make their way to checkpoints in places around the world, eventually racing back to a finish line in the U.S.

Anyone who auditions must have a partner and be 21 years old. Both members of each team must be U.S. citizens and be living in the United States. They must also be in excellent physical and mental health, and they must authorize producers to conduct a background check.

"Survivor" winner Jenna Morasca of Pittsburgh was a participant on the current season of "The Amazing Race." She and her boyfriend, fellow "Survivor" winner Ethan Zohn, were eliminated from the race in the second week. 

For more information about the casting call, see the casting call information page on KDKA-TV's website.
