Now about the
cache:
Week
15: I am a Cleveland Browns Fan… So, of all the other
football teams, the Steelers are my least favorite team (Ravens
come a close second)! When thinking about how I was going to hide
this cache, I wanted to display my dislike for the team somehow.
Please be VERY CAREFUL when searching/retrieving this cache, there
is a large drop off near the cache. If you bring your kids to look
for caches, I would recommend they stay in the car for this search.
Slightly different kind of container for these losers.Don’t
forget to keep track of your playbook for the series. Have
fun!
About The Series:

cache series to find? Throughout the football weeks, bluepant and
mob1971, will be hiding a series of different style NFL team
caches. These caches hope to excite the football fanatics and also
teach the not so football savvy some things about each team. These
