Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Hunt for the Pioneer Press medallion!

The Pioneer Press medallion has been found. Details are at our Winter Carnival page.

The hunt's over, but the discussion rages on ...

Nobody in this room or anywhere else has any ground to stand on when they talk s**t until they find the med. So please if you're gonna be in this chat room, focus on finding the medallion.

All right pocket, what are your ideas on where its at? Everyone has already dug up the entire area. What other places has it been that weren't on the ground?

I am watching you fools try to figure out something you will never find. You might as well try to guess the Powerball numbers. It's not about figuring it out. We all know it's at CP the rest is dumb luck. It could be in something(container) or nothing at all. Your best bet IF you insist on looking is to GO to the park....pick a spot that is not so dug up and dig...

Mother lode means the largest rock, or at least I think so.

I'm talking to you real m

you're gonna be real gone as soon as the authorities catch wind of your comments they will be hauling you over to the federal building

for some questioning in regards to your statements about bombing

you see since Oklahoma City jokes in public about bombing are no longer considered jokes, its like being on a plane and proclaiming

you have a bomb in your luggage ...... Winslow Westsider time to grow

up.

I'm thinking that we could be looking for an actual key, and possibly unlocking a door to the bathrooms at CP. But right now I'll believe about anything. New and Improved??? :) :)

I think the "immeasurable" and "Rosebud" are worth discussing. We know what the "kee" is about and clues are NOT double.

I don't know, but anywayz, I gotta go for about an hour, if there are any breakthroughs, or you just think I'm a cool guy, click on the little head guy beside me for my e-mail.

I don't think they would put the keys out there in this day with rapists and other idiots

I haven't heard anything about the clue " inmeasurable" But it says "almost Immeasurable" which tells me that something needs to be measured or something...

Cherokee definitely seems like the place, but is there even an inch of ground that hasn't been dug up yet? As far as the big green chair at the other end of the High Bridge goes, I was there last night with about 25 other people and we scoured. Not saying it still couldn't be there, alot of the clues fit that sight perfectly, but then again, as always, some don't.

Does it say that it is found on the main page in the winter carnival section?

Most ilLOGICAL MAN. There ain't no recording that says anything having to do with the medallion.

Yeah, Logical Man, What is the phone number that you called to receive your information?

ShovelMaster

Logical Man, it's not very logical to lie when your statement can be quickly diproved by a quick call to the paper.... which has been done. The medallion wasn't found.

gee evans I bet you even have one of those stupid bumper stickers

I am still leaning towards the running path theory. They haven't plowed it all winter. Is tha because they don't have cash or is it because of the Winter Carnival?

Logical Man

Just kidding... Seriously it's at CP but the question is, could it be above the ground and thats why it has not been found yet?

What's up now, Logical Man?

Folks, as I said in the wee hours of this a.m. - Casey has never let us down; he'll tell us if it's found. (he, he, he!!!!)

And w/the way you jokers are making hash outta a dead horse and clogging up the server with it, I'm SURE Casey will be more than happy to tell the Cooler WAY before it's posted on the Web page and the sign on the front door is turned over... so he can have some peace and quiet!!!!!!!

QUIT CALLING THE PRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEAVE THEM ALONE!!!!!!!!!! You guys screw around and make them not have The Cooler for the clues in subsequent years, you're gonna smell worse that dead horse you're beating!!!! LEAVE THE PAPER A-L-O-N-E!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they have this medallion hidden well. It seems that with hundreds of people almost constantly at the park for the last few days, SOMEONE would accidently come across it. I live two blocks from Cherokee and have been out there quite often with no luck.
