tc and i were down at aw's place in cottage grove for a party, and one of the guys from his singles club, in a drunken stupor, starts playing it on an acoustic guitar. we both about fell out of our chairs.
Well since you mentioned it, let me give the details on what will be the 9th annual (and original!) Mock Hunt (so named because it came between the Medallion Hunt and the Fitgers Bock Hunt, Medallion + Bock = Mock).
This year's Mock Hunt will start on Saturday, March 1st. Clues will come out daily at 6pm on the Allison Wonderland Yahoo group (and will likely be crossposted elsewhere). The rules are largely similar to the Pioneer Press Medallion Hunt with a few differences:
1. The treasure is definitely hidden in St. Paul.
2. The clues are released at 6pm.
3. You do not need to clip the clues or buy a button. However you do have the option to be a registered hunter. Registration is $10 and the money all goes towards the prize pool. If you are registered and you find it, you get all the money. You may also hunt if you are not registered, but you will only win $100 and any extra money in the prize pool will go towards the next mock hunt.
4. The hunt ends when it is found, however long that may take.
There will be a kickoff party at Fabulous Fern's from 5-8pm on Saturday the 1st in the bar area. You can register at that time. You can also register by Paypal or by check up until the time of the 4th clue. Send me a message if you wish to do so.
I anticipate good participation this year so face the challenge of going up against other hunters and see if you can be the one to claim the prize this year!
I like this type of hunt - more like Amazing Race - taking from one place to the next
I noticed that teams sabotage the other teams at times
and in the end they dont hold it against eachother.
I know thats more like in the movies but interesting.
all for a trophy
and I would love to eat like Harold in the end - heh
