2003 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt - The Blair Witch Hunt

Submitted by THX 1138 on

Discuss the 2003 Pioneer Press Medallion Here.

MJ


is there an established way to acknowledge fellow coolerheads after one of us finds the medallion?

You drop your glove over the medallion, and then when you go to pick it up . . . . you puke!

Kcog... Got news fur ewe... You happen to be a 'Head. You're here, you're among the rest o'us... You're sunk. And in case you're worried about hanging about with the likes o'those here...

I bet it is, that's why I decided to stay home and read the clue, if it's soo easily located from it, I'll let the cell phone guys out there grab it and be done.

Next year though, I plan on being fully prepared to claim my place in medallion history :)

Going to the paper is the best part of the hunt.

That's where you get to meet tons of new people and actually have time to shoot this S**t, unlike when you're digging in the park.

Last year was the first time I myself got interested in the hunt, but being it was a short one, I don't think I took so much to it. This year's has made me more determined to press on in future ones and find that medallion!

What ever happened to them? I remember the good ol' days when Ittiz Eye's picture next to his (her?) posts scared the crap out of me!

Lurker . . . . I lurked for months, then I had to go meet them at the Great Minnesota Get Together before I even had the courage to post. Wanted to know what kind of people they were.

WONDERFUL PEOPLE!

I think this was the year the shy cooler heads broke free....I myself was merely a lurker for the last 5 years.

I don't understand that and I'm actually a fairly shy guy.

Of course, I knew a lot of these people online before I even did the hunt.

At least at the Rehash Bash we can wear nametags and finally connect the names/faces!

I was wearing a nametag all year this year. Hoping people would say hello. Many of them did which was cool.

THX, would you tell Scribe for me that my wife finally came and got me today, I was at HF since clue #4

LOL! Poor wolfpac!

I wonder if our loyal forces are getting their butts chewed out royally... Fur destruction and all that...

Agreed Green. Though with me it was more of a slow process. I grew up with the treasure hunt, but never really went out looking (parents weren't interested) Then moved outta town for my high school years, so kind lost the whole thing over that time. Now that I'm on my own, I can get out there myself and hunt, so it's a process of getting more into it, this year's got me hooked though.

The clue comes out at 11:00.

We should expect someone to post it soon.

Remember, this person is doing it out of the kindness of their heart.
