Geocache Description:

Our first puzzle cache (given coordinates are false)! We hope it’s ENTERTAINING… it’s a movie-themed hunt, after all. The cache is a 50 cal ammo can in Sprague Brook Park.

We LOVE movies… in fact, you can rarely find a conversation in the TOTALNRG household when a line isn’t used to express how we’re feeling at the time. Below is a short quiz to test your movie knowledge and help you discover the true coordinates of the booty that is the Shenanigans! Cache.

A. The number of times Foster says “meow” to the driver in ‘Super Troopers’.
B. How many Young Ones are there in the BBC TV show of the same name? (hint: the roommates)
C. Number of days Ferris Bueller was absent during the semester in the movie about his ‘day off’.
D. “I’m not bad, I’m just drawn that way” is a quote from Jessica Rabbit in the 198_ film about the framing of her husband, Roger.
E. How many magic words must Ash recite to claim the Book of the Dead in ‘Army of Darkness'?
F. Number of letters in Will Ferrell’s character’s name in the movie ‘Elf’.
G. How much louder are Spinal Tap’s amps than other amps?
H. How many McKenzie Brothers are there? (from the movie ‘Strange Brew’)
I. Bluto Blutarsky announces “___ years of college down the drain” after the Deltas are expelled in the movie ‘Animal House’.
J. The answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything… according to the ‘Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy’.
K. Answer to question A minus answer to question B.
