MINBIN Halloween 5K Mouse Hunt

MinBin was a startup that tried to forge an online community, and in a marketing effort to do so, hid computer mice in 5 spots in the Twin Cities before Halloween of 2005. The Cooler Crew swept their hunts. Unfortunately the organization didn't last more than a year, and this ended up being a one-time hunt.
