Visstnok antagelig verdens største Scavenger Hunt. I alle fall den mest fascinerende.
Lagene inkluderer bl.a. gigantene Snells Like Hitchcock Spirit og Team WOMBAT for Great Justice! (kom på delt førsteplass i fjor) og underdogsa Lush Puppies Mark Six, The Federation of Independent ScavHunt Teams Part Cinq, Deleuzean Potato Refried, Billmire's Scrod Re-Does Stony Island Again, Even Less _____ Even More Umlaut, Rosebud (ja, det er ett lag).
På lista over ting som skal finnes eller gjøres er det både roadtrip og enorme mengder obskure referanser; her er det noe for alle:
23. In Soviet Russia, Scav hunts you! Get the autograph of the One and Only. What a country! [1986 - 1951 points]
35. A sunblocker, the likes of which will cause every plant and tree to die and owls to deafen us with their incessant hooting. [300 points per city block that is cast into eternal darkness]
44. Only one team of seasoned road warriors can successfully deliver Item #142 to his destination: the Mutant Presidents! Shunned by Beltway insiders because of their monstrous appearance, these contorted commanders-in-chief have taken to the backcountry byways on a trip of Wasteward Expansion. Mutant Presidents, sound off! Jabba the Taft! George W. Bush with Kuato Cheney! A Martin Van Buren that's more sideburn than man! And of course, Octo-Lincoln! In their trusty vehicle, the President Ford, they travel America in search of adventure. At 9:00 AM on Thursday, they should appear in Hutch Courtyard so that we may Hail to the Freaks before they start out on their latest odyssey. [ points. Mutant presidents must be fully costumed in all photo- or videographic documentation of each road trip item or no points will be awarded]
47. All Tomorrow's Parties. In the not too distant future, next Friday AD, the teams will host a shindig, to the delight of you and me. Stop arguing over whether the future will be a totalitarian government dystopia or a privatized corporate dystopia and head on over to the quads for a blast from the, er, opposite of past. To help you answer the immortal question, "Whatever happened to the parties of tomorrow?", individual `Visions. . . of. . . the Future!' will be given out at Scav Captains and the Meeting of Tomorrow. The future's so bright, we're gonna need shades. [x points]
(Ja, startmøtet heter Scav Captains and the Meeting of Tomorrow)
72. A fitting tribute to the Hero of Canton, made of authentic materials. Toast him with Mudder's Milk! [33 points]
77. We're sick of "We Didn't Start the Fire," so rewrite "Danger! High Voltage!" to tell the tale of Julita Groszko. [13 points]
124. Who wears short shorts? Why, tenured faculty members, of course! [10 points]
145. Word has it that the Christ of the Ozarks is the tallest structure in Eureka Springs. Octo-Lincoln disagrees! Take a picture proving that he is the more titanic humanoid. [7 points]
166. The veterans of the Cola Wars demand a fiting tribute. Give them a spectacular simultaneous 21 two-liter and Mentos (r) salute! [21/2 spectacular points]
180. Motherfucking snakes on a motherfucking plane! [1+1 points, because snakes are adders. No. . . because it's snake eyes. But not 1 X 1 points, because we don't want them to multiply. So, 2 points]
199. Reformat an original NES into an alarm clock. Must be able to set the alarm, hit snooze, and toggle between radio and ear-splitting buzzing by way of the controller. [15 points]
267. Use a trampoline in conjunction with any other item on the list to make that item more awesome. [5 points. Use once, use wisely]
284. Google Images gives no results for `3536 S Lowe'. Fix that. [2 points]
302. As the mutant presidents gather to reflect upon their journeys in the Octo-Lincoln Octo-Council Octo-Ring in the Octo-Lincoln Octo-Memorial Octo-Garden, they declare, "That was a great road trip." And although he is no longer with them, they rest safe in the knowledge that President Clinton is in a better place. Octo-Lincoln agrees. [8 + 8 + 8 Octo-Points]
