Clue Explanations

I formatted the clue explanations and attached them here in case anyone wants to see them all together. I need to remember for next year......don't go too deep. The person who found the medallion this year said they kept it simple - wade= beach and hill has to be by the beach.  hahahaha.

Well, I got a couple of clues right. But, 'futsal?! C'mon!
And Clue 11 would have pushed me over the edge.

Now I do, though I'm not sure if you can read them without a description:

Ok. Usually they are out the next day I thought in the past

I read that the clue explanations will be in Thursday’s paper.

The photo was time-stamped 2015. So strange

Maybe it was the CW's car. They were checking for possible hiding spots near the beach house.

Was the puck hidden in the car?

Was it a Mercury? LOL

Just saw the craziest thing. If you zoom in on Google maps to where the treasure was found south of the beach house, there is a car parked on the grass!

Wow! I never knew that. And I grew up with baseball.
Good noodlin'.

https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/st-paul-winter-carnival-medallion-tracked-down-by-first-time-hunter-in-phalen-regional-park/ So odd that we can not watch the interview on ppd without subscription but anyone can see it on cbs

And this!

I think the Chinese clue was a what's in the park reference clue. I think the true hiding clue is that A can of corn is a lazy fly ball that is easy to catch.

Re: PP Medallion Hunt - Clue #10

Gold and silver. Silver can gold corn.

Just read that the medallion was inside an empty can of SunLuck stir fry baby corn. It's a Chinese product, so the clue about taking it on the CHIN and buckling the KNEES is the only remote clue about what the puck was hidden in. Maybe Clue 11 or 12 would have referenced the SunLuck can in some way, unless there is some anagram in one of the other clues that we missed.
It'll be interesting to read the CW's clue explanations.

Here's a link to a short video celebrating the hunt

Tue, 01/31/2023 - 19:13
Part 1 of the video is the reveal of the PP patch and part 2 is a poem about the hunt in which I of course include The Allison Wonderland community. I swear my rhymes are much easier going than the CW's 2023 hunt. Total runtime is just over 2 minutes.
