2005 Minbin.com and Minnesota Wild hunts

He might be having the same issues G was having. He had a log in but wasn't able to post. JT had to talk to Mark to get things fixed.

I just checked my email - now I can post. Not that there's much about the hunt to talk about yet.

In any case, I am really stoked to try a Pioneer Press hosted summer hunt. This is cool of them to try this. Sort of a legitimate version of a mock hunt. There is only one true hunt, but what the hell - its summer! A nice treat.

See you downtown tonight.

I'm interested to see if you guys got papers tonight, if you did I may have to go down there tomorrow...

good noodles so far... I hope someone rechecked the nook under the clock tower at mears where jake found marley's

Day 2

It’s not in the bag ‘til you capture the flag

But no flutter or wave will be seen

Look for some plastic that’s most fantastic

And comes wrapped in red and green

We may be hacks but we’ve covered our tracks

Like a Zamboni circling the rink

There’s a deke or two amid our clues

So don’t act before you think

Day 1

As soon as we learned of hockey’s return

We knew it was a grand occasion

And so we’ve devised a special prize

To reward you for your patience

For your summer pleasure we’ve hidden a treasure

At a park somewhere in St. Paul

It’s high time you look beneath every nook

In hopes that you’ll win it all

Its on twin cities.com right now....

Whats the story?

aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!! having fun walking downtown. :cool:

thank you Becks for the screwdriver!!!!

now I have to go read the clue...

he looks like he's about to barf in those glasses of beer... lmao!!!

these clues bother me....

sweet.... this is my 200th post

I cant decide if 4:00 is too early to begin drinking, to keep the buzz going....or too late to continue it from earlier....

Looks like fun!

I'm scheduled to have Friday off. Maybe I'll come down Thursday night.

We may be hacks = golfing?

We've covered our tracks = railroad or trolley tracks that have been paved over or overgrown with grass. Train tracks covered by a bridge or depot? A race or running track that was dirt but has now been paved?

A deke or two = some wordplay?

Does Eileen actually have tracks along the park? Or can you only see them from that one corner of the park?

I gotta dig out my THG!

I have this sinking feeling that they're going to have it at Como. The park is big enough, and think of how much harder it would be to find it there with all the green. They may feel that we're not going to gripe about it too much because it's in the summer, and we may be just thankful to have another hunt at this time of year.

If it was going to be at Highland, the place I had in mind was the Charles Schultz ice arena.

see ya all at como! :goofy:

no flutter or wave...no pool of water nearby?!

Hack Hockey is a game, right?

Deke (Hockey) Deke refers to deceiving an opponent in ice hockey by a fake.

I have no idea what the word meant so I merriam webstered it and they are charging now so I googled it and found this...is this what everyone else was thinking last night?

So there would be a 'fake' or two in this clue? Sounds like my dream last night.

Swimming: there is a 'wave' breaststroke and a "flutter" kick

yes so no water or pool. or no swimming.

whats plastic that comes wrapped in red and green?

does reynolds wrap make colored plastic wrap?

I think it is a hockey puck wrapped in the Wild flag

I'm still liking Highland for some reason

a deke or two = towered oak
