Yes - you can poo in Tim's Mock Hunt of Burning Poo

Submitted by THX 1138 on
My mock hunt is going to start Oct 16!!!! 2 clues a day, 12 clues in all! Clues 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 will be given as close to 9 AM as possible. Clues 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 will be given as close to 3 PM as possible. Right here. Clues 1 and 12 are special so they will be given at special times. 

Prizes: 2 pairs of tickets to Minnesota Wild home games (tbd), 2 St Paul Saints hats, 2 Pioneer Press hats, 1 DVD of all the interviews for No Time For Cold Feet along with the Zephy news story and the story on last years finders from CM, 1 bag of m and m's 

Clue #1 

I captured the flag nearby burial mounds 

But if you look near there you’ll be left in the dark 

Because it’s a sacred area that is out of bounds 

One thing's the same: it's in a Ramsey County Park 

Clue #2 

A post every year, hey have a beer 

When you find this you're on your way 

But to which park should I steer? 

You might find out later today 

Clue #3 

The typical clue that doesn't tell you poo 

Usually comes around clue number three 

The park has tables, grills, and a shelter too 

Is that all? Not when you find two twenty 

Clue #4 

Live in the present, but remember the past 

A one, a two, one red, one blue 

Other than a vote, what can be cast? 

Another treasure was hidden here too 

Clue #5 

A street or a few can split into two 

Many times this causes a plight 

Even you can figure out this clue 

Should you think of nuggets and a time with no light 

Clue #6 

The battle for the axe was settled by fate 

In an overly heated battle 

Look near the reason this bout causes such hate 

And the rest will follow you like cattle 

Clue #7 

Normally you wouldn’t re-bake veal 

But in this case you should give it a try 

Figuring this clue is a pretty big deal 

And if you don’t get it your chances might die 

Clue #8 

Step up to the challenge, move away from the lake 

Rockin with Ben Folds may offer a guide 

The prize can be taken without using a rake 

Just look for a good spot for a rodent to hide 

Clue #9 

Terry, Shawn, Dan, Scott, and Jason 

Couldn't have been any better 

They teamed with Johnson and Johnson 

To help me hide my Wild sweater

'spose I could call in sick. Since I only have a month left.

I don't think I'd have much luck though, since I'm having a hard time figuring out when the hunt starts and ends, even though it's clearly posted above. Guess I better get with the program. :eek: :ooh: :worried:

Maybe the hockey seats he's giving away is in Section 220. He said that clue #3 doesn't usually help.

tim_the_hunter

since some people might know this information and others might not... I'll go ahead and divulge it to everyone.

my tickets are in 230.

also, I live in Cottage Grove (I was asked this as well)

Section 220 is to the left of 230....

tim_the_hunter

In case anyone didn't figure this out... don't listen to OTiS. 220 is to the right of 230. Unless you want to go the long way.

OTiS

If you're sitting in 230 then yes it's to the right... but if I was looking at it on a map --->... it would be to the left :smile:

Did you have a chance to watch it yet Tim? It might not play on some of the older players.

Maybe Tim is the prize? Doesn't he weigh about 220? :chagrin:

I didn't, my computer is being lame. I'll try it later.

And I don't weigh 220 you bastard. I lost some weight, and you didn't even notice. :pbpt:
