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 don't know that Hey Hey necessarily has a meaning. Most clues only have one bit of information, although the clues thus far seem to have a few. Clue #3 could possibly be seen as having up to 8 different hints!
I was out at Merriam tonight and ran into kitty there. She was telling me how the camera crew practically jumped her when she came to get her paper. I told her I already knew, I was there and saw the whole thing. I didn't know who she was at that point but from their reaction I thought she was maybe someone famous. She was cool to talk to though. Seemed to have a lot of the same ideas I had.
Clue 3 hit me like this,Time and tide=High-time, High-tide. fun-land, land-slide! I lined up the streets off clue 2 Hillcrest, and all I see is golf courses!!!!!!!!! Oh crud here comes that camera crew......
Be fair and on and off air immediately made me think of the Fairgrounds area, and the KSTP tower-which would lead me to como, but could also be baseball field-which many of the parks have.
The highland connection with clue 3 works well except for "funland". There really isn't any such common expression as "funland" and in the other three words, the added word precedes the word in the clue whereas in this one it comes after it. Plus it would be rather strange to allude to the name of the park in Clue #3.
I still think it's a broadcast tower. My first instinct was one that broadcasts sports games like the KSTP tower by Newell. From the northern part of Phalen you can see the Shoreview towers. And from Merriam you can see about 5 different towers but I haven't figured out yet what they all are.
Hey, hey and OK, OK... Completely meaningless or a sign of two of something? Double something? I'm new to all this. WTF does it all mean!?!? I see no need for the redundancy.
what if the "in and on the air" thing doesnt mean up in the air...i was thinkin about stuff that you put air into...or things that run on air. Maybe like a bike tire, or an inflatable couch...i dont know why i bring this up...prolly cause its almost 3 in the morning and im tired?
K...here's a thought...I don't think we are supposed to just be looking for beacons or towers or anything like that. They are EVERYWHERE!
What if in AND on the air were two things...but the same.
For instance...seeing that the first part of the clue has somewhat of a baseball theme...let's say there was like a "Bonds" street...it would be IN the air...and he is also ON the air when on TV.
Am I making sense...I don't really know how to explain myself on this one....
I was actually there alone. I stood outside for a while talking with Scribe and Marley and Artemis and then went back to my car. When I got in my car I started thinking "Where is Merriam anyway? Maybe I should check that one out since I already know Newell and it's too late to get into Phalen." So I looked on my streep map and saw it actually wasn't too far from Newell which really got me thinking that maybe you could see some of the same towers from Merriam as you could from Newell. So I drove over there. Took me a little while to find it but I did. I got out and walked up the hill, then walked down to the playground. I was looking around there when I saw a light on the hill and noticed there were some other people looking around. Since one was wearing the light on her head, I figured they had to be fellow hunters, espeically since they seemed to keep referring to a book they had with them. So I ended up walking over there and it turned out to be kitty and a friend of hers. We talked and checked out the rest of the park together, but none of us brought any digging stuff. After a while I was pretty convinced it was a promising spot so I went back to my car and headed home.
You're right that those towers seem to be everywhere, which is what makes it a good clue for this early in the hunt. They're not going to want to tell us something that can only apply to one park and thus reveal the correct park too early.
yeah, they like it to piss people off this early, ninja...almost everyone can look at the clues and go "oh that fits this park....and this one...and this one...OH and this one by my house too"
Its a narrowing down process, if you follow the "right" chain of thought through the clues you should end up at the right park. It's only the 4th clue.
That Baseball talk is the Saints again! The be fair, Fairgronds. Something in and on the air, Doppler tower! I think I found out what "Hey Hey" you say were game to play" is this writer taking us on a premature goose chase! And the quotations are astatement to us!
Anyways- My list includes Phalen, Indian Mounds, Como, and a couple smaller ones- Merriam doesn't look bad either. I'm already looking forward to the next clue!
The baseball terms were another thing that made me think Newell being by Midway stadium, as well as being by the fair. But the last time it was at Newell, they didn't give us "Fair" quite so easily, so I have a hard time believing they would just offer it right up this time. Maybe they're trying to make us think it's at Newell when it's not.
Good thought on the Doppler tower JMM! I forgot there are other things in the air other than just radio and TV waves. Cool. Something to ponder deeper maybe
Did any of you guys kick some trails tonight?
I don't know that Hey Hey necessarily has a meaning. Most clues only have one bit of information, although the clues thus far seem to have a few. Clue #3 could possibly be seen as having up to 8 different hints!
AW she's not just a member shes the freakin clown president!!!!!!
why do they use the word "tip" instead of "hint" or "idea" or "clue"
Think that means somethin'?
Yeah...the next clue HAS to be a good one...ya figure they gotta throw us some sucky ones, and then a good one and the rest will suck again...
I saw that. I thought "What a *****!" What was up with that?
Right?? She probably works there. Disgruntled paper worker.
Clue 3 had me glued to highland, but too many damn golf courses

Seemed to have a lot of the same ideas I had.
I was thinking tip (like a foul tip), fair, and game to play could be baseball/softball references.
Clue 3 hit me like this,Time and tide=High-time, High-tide. fun-land, land-slide! I lined up the streets off clue 2 Hillcrest, and all I see is golf courses!!!!!!!!! Oh crud here comes that camera crew......
All i know is this wierdo's drug references in every clue...
"Light a Spark"
"Work Your Brain If You Have Time To Kill...It Will Be Fun!"
"Trip Over The Goods"
"Look For Things In and ON the air"
no wonder we're all stuck!!!
Be fair and on and off air immediately made me think of the Fairgrounds area, and the KSTP tower-which would lead me to como, but could also be baseball field-which many of the parks have.
It could be conclusive or elusive...

Anybody wanna touch on the In and on the air? From Mounds I liked High Bridge, Beacon flashing for airport, planes from Holman Field.....
Damn..now that you brought that up, maybe we're not looking for a medallion this year...maybe its a baggie of crack or something?
AW where did your party head after the PP?

Yeah, StepDogg, i dig it

Aw has a point Newell and Merriam plenty of towers North and west!
YOU CAN SEE TOWERS FROM EVERY PARK....EVERY ONE!!!!
You're right that those towers seem to be everywhere, which is what makes it a good clue for this early in the hunt. They're not going to want to tell us something that can only apply to one park and thus reveal the correct park too early.

I live within a mile of both parks! You know how frustrating it is to have it that close to you and not get it?
And actually you can't see broadcast from *everywhere*. It does elimnate some parks, like I don't think you can see any from Hidden Falls.
Exactly! Keep us to'in and fro'in !
If its at Newell again I'll just sh-t!
Could 'Tip' mean something you tip over or tip back, like a cow or a beer?
I need to go - I even sound stupid to myself
Tonights clue HAS to narrow it down to like 3 or 4 parks...
if the clue indeed is referring to broadcast towers. this writer is a nut!! It could be a pun, play on words...something to do with baseball!
Its a narrowing down process, if you follow the "right" chain of thought through the clues you should end up at the right park. It's only the 4th clue.
allison you read to much into clues your floged and u will never find it!!!!!

as everone forgets this is a carnival event
I bet if I were chemically enhanced somehow, perhaps these clues would make more sense.
Anyways- My list includes Phalen, Indian Mounds, Como, and a couple smaller ones- Merriam doesn't look bad either. I'm already looking forward to the next clue!

Not too many carnivals part with 11,200 buks everyday now is there?
Brew...your right, tonight is the first night i havent been drinkin while reading the clues...and tonight THEY REALLY SUCK!!
And a Joe to end the night. Good night everyone. SCDs, and hopefully tomorrow's clue will be more promising.
Good thought on the Doppler tower JMM! I forgot there are other things in the air other than just radio and TV waves. Cool. Something to ponder deeper maybe
Nice Joe Kids!
There's a few more I need to check out thouroughly tomorrow, to rule them in or out.
So you'd go back to Como but not to Newell Marley?
Damn como...hell no..if their gonna do a repeat park, i'd rather have them do it at Newell than Como, too...
BrewMan - You just convinced me to go kick a couple back before bed...thanks buddy!!
My list includes every park in St. Paul...So I'm glad tonight allowed me to narrow things down a bit. Have a good night all.
Newell :{ :{ :{ Would rather think its at Como
Later Dogg - C-Ya @ da Frog Pond - SCD's all
