2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

I never understood the Joe thing either. I usually just tune it out at this point.

I joined the cc after joe medallion had left, but the joe "game" is neat.

I think maybe some one should start a new bullitin board and add the rule that you can't talk about anything but the hunt and then everyone would be happy.

actually, llady, we had one. it was called shoot the breeze with the cooler crew, and was pretty much for the type of socialising that's gone on here aside from hunt-talk. it got a little out of control after 11 september, and was pulled.

it was getting rather ugly. i think they should create a new one to replace it though.

I actually remember Joe Medallion and how obnoxious and disruptive he was. So it does seem weird that people named something in his honor.

Every message board I was on regardless of the topic got ugly for a while after September 11th. It was just kind of a wave that you needed to ride out.

Think they would have any memorial in the hunt for the medallion? maybe hide it in a flag or something, but not as obvious as that, something commemorative?

a study that said shoveling isnt safe. may cause a heart attack for older diggers

I think if you look in the past, you'll be hard pressed to find any correlation between the actual hiding places and anything that was going on at the time.

definitely not in a flag, m2k2, that'd kinda violate general flag respect rules. perhaps a red/white/blue knitted/crocheted something or other?

I got busy here with other things and then had to slog quick to catch up.

I think the reason that some like the joe thing is that even if it was obnoxious, there was something historical about it when all was said and done. That was the year of chair-0-key when this crew really started taking some form.

Allison - I'm with you though...I just ignore the whole thing.

a study that said shoveling isnt safe.

my grandmother's neighbor went out to shovel the sidewalk one day a few years ago. had a heart attack and died on the spot. so it does happen.

are you? you do offend me by using the lords name in vain, not creative just dis respectful. grow up.

and if you don't understand the referance, I am not making fun of you by asking if you are jewish, because my boss is.

Perhaps we could call the person/people who write the clues and hide the medallion as the "Medallion Moles." I just think back to that show the past year or two. "Are you the mole? Do you hide the medallion? Do you write the clues? If not, then who?"
