CONGRATULATION MUCLUCK AND ICEMAN!!!
They found the treasure at Hazel Park Recreation Center, after clue #9, under a bench located behind ball field #3. A magnet was used to secure the bag with the treasure under the bench.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My hunt kicked off on friday, May 9th at Obbs Bar at Mounds Park. Clues will be realeased at 8am daily until found.
I asked for $5 registrations to go towards the total pot and I will kick in an extra $25. If the finder is not registered they will only receive 1/2 the pot. Any leftover money will be given to the winner of the next hunt that takes place.
The pot is $120
Clue 1/Fri
The hunt is on, now go find the treasure
All you have to do is follow the hint
I hope you have fun and find some pleasure
St Paul's the place with the mint
Clue 2/Sat
Look for a place that has a newer face
and you may measure up the winner
Just locate the courts and places to play
and don't wreck it, just look for dinner
Clue 3/Sun
If you like southern rock you may have heard uneasy rider
Wasn't he on a yamaha?
All I know is he wanted to go from St Paul to Chicago
via Omaha?
Clue 4/Mon
Some like country and some like soul
the harder the better I say
So think of the stones, they wont be alone
if you can't get no satisfaction today
Clue 5/Tue
You'll need a vessel if you want to travel
like they did back in time
For the end of the road is dirt and gravel
and here you'll see the rhyme
If when you get there, you run out of tar
you should turn around
Because if you did this you oughta know
you just went a bridge too far
Clue 6/Wed
When you get hungry just have a picnic
there is no chicken or corn
Just find a sandwich and a place to grill
because it has been reborn
Imagine brown trout and picture the water
as you think of Kinnickinnic
Just go nuts and run to the border
and soon you will be liking it
Clue 7/Thu
If you can't find it, dont get on me for it
ask Peppermint Patty or Charlie Brown
If you figure this clue, you will be in luck
and soon you will not frown
Clue 8/Fri
To find it is tricky, you might need
a lawyer to make your case
But all you really have to do
is line up and look for a base
Clue 9/Sat
Another opportunity to find the way
is to play with virtual lives
Add a vehicle and a boy in the netherlands
and see where they might arrive
THE FINDERS!!!
Clue 10/Sun
Think of a school and think of a playground
they're both in this neighborhood
If you can figure the three together
you should be feeling good
I'm sure by now your looking for something
that will give you names
One I'd try is William Leonard
and his wife Helen Ames
Clue 11/Mon
Hazel and Case might be the place
if you look with a certain zeal
If you locate the prize, you may be surprised
and you might let out a squeal
Clue 12/Tue
Go to the place at Hazel and Case
and run to the southern border
Look for the rock and look at the base
and then you'll win in short order
You wont need a wrench to look under the bench
and find the prize you desire
Just give me a call and let me know
and the money you will acquire

Some like country and some like soul

home from a crazy stress day at work
not going to the Saints game tonight cause my accident prone kid hurt her ribcage area at a waterpark this weekend
sooooooo, here I am hanging out of the couch with my feet kicked up and gonna try to noodle. aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh I miss noodling....
lots of references to new and "mint condition" in the first two clues
possibly a reference to a bar nearby, cuz I really don't think it would be referencing an empty bottle of liquor on the ground.. lol
STONES
there is a nice boulder in the southern side of Highland
dont know where any new tennis courts or basketball courts are at Highland though
unless it goes with High court
kellogg looking good :smile:
<edit> oh yeah, the places to play
no playground

In the hollywood hills and the boulevard
Her parents threw big parties
Everyone was there
They hung out with folks like
Dennis Hopper, Bob Seeger, Sonny and Cher
Now, she feels safe
In this bare on fairfax
And from the stage I can tell that
She can't let go and she can't relax
And just before she hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullaby, I sing
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye, rockabye
She still lives with her mom outside the city
Down that street about a half a mile
And all her friends tell her, she's so pretty
But she'd be a whole lot prettier
If she smiled once in a while
'cause ever her smile looks like a frown
She's seen her share of devils
In this angel town
But, everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye, rockabye
I told her I ain't so sure about this place
It's hard to play a gig in this town
And keep a straight face
Seems like everybody's got a plan
It's kind of like Nashville with a tan, but
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
Everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye, rockabye
bye, bye
bye, bye
The river flows, it flows to the sea
Wherever that river goes, that's where I want to be
Flow river flow, let your waters wash down
Take me from this road to some other town
All I wanted was to be free
And that's the way it turned out to be...
River?
dinner? just a place to eat I guess
first thought was picnic grounds but I think its a restaurant
cool

I thinkin' so :frown:
Someone check the southernmost side of the fire ring at Highland Park. - On the 'woods' side
1) -- Place with the Mint - Pearson's Mint Patties
2) -- Newer Face - Remodeled and redone streets in Highland
-- "Measure Up" can be the yardage markers for the golf holes - frisbee and the like
-- Courts and wreck - a wreck would end up with you in court and probably talking to a cop at the police station - adjacent to the fire ring
-- Look for dinner - Famous Daves is right down the hill - reference to the Booya shelter as well
3) -- Southern Rock - clue to what rock to look under
-- Motorcycle references - there is a few motorcycle parking spaces in the lot adjacent to the fire pit
-- Omaha - hell what else rhymes with Yamaha
4) -- Country and Soul - outdoor amphitheater is visible from the fire pit
-- Stones wont be alone - ring of several stones makes up the fire pit ring
I also thought famous daves but there are other things along w 7th that can be seen but ribs are a southern thing - I heart bbq
Just wanted you to know its done.
But with the later clues, Highland looks like a good bet for now.
I also had 2 more people register today. One person even donated an extra $5.
The pot is up to $115
TWO people donated an extra $5 so the pot is up to $120.
Definitely looking forward to the next clue, hopefully providing some more to chew on... who knows, maybe it'll throw everyone for a loop?
then playing and new construction
but both Phalen AND Highland have new construction
I love Highlands new look with the playground - Id play on it :smile:
Sky Builder
don't wreck it - auto otto hummer
basically find a park with a playground and stay away from it.
