The jackpot is at hand, stuck in the land
Below the trumpet, the bowl, and the seal.
Can't win on a hunch? Then perhaps lunch
Will aid you in ending this ordeal.

The official meaning of the clue.

“Jackpot” is a hint at the number 777. The “trumpet, bowl, and seal” from the Book of Revelation also hints at 777 because there were in fact 7 trumpets,7 bowls, and 7 seals. 777 is the address of a nearby building on the park grounds just north of the medallion, clearly shown by the numbers on the building itself. “WIN-ON-A” is word play for the street WINONA, which is nearby the medallion. “Lunch” refers to the nearby picnic grounds.

If you're afraid of heights, its quite alright
The prize is far from the bluffs - please stay back.
If you want to win, best look for the twins
But better yet seek out the men in black.

The official meaning of the clue.

“Heights” hints at the name of the park (Cherokee Heights Park). We tell all searchers to stay far away from the bluffs. Nearby the medallion is the crosswalk. This crosswalk has two pedestrian crossing signs, which taken together depict two men shaded black against a yellow background. Hence, the reference to the “twins” and “Men in Black.”
