Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates are bogus! And wet! To find the real coordinates, you must solve a puzzle.

La bandita boatchick is really fond of two things: baseball and reading. During the off-season, she sometimes compensates by eating hot dogs with stadium mustard and pickle relish while reading books about baseball.

Thoughtful bandito bennet had picked an almost-new copy of Pete Rose: My Story at a garage sale one day, when he was shopping for little plastic containers to hide in the woods. As bandita was trying very hard not to drip any stadium mustard on this archival tome, she noticed a little raggedy-edged piece of paper poking out of the book.

“¡Ai, bandito!” she said. “Is this a bookmark, or is it some type of cryptic note? It says 'Akron Aeros' on the back.”

El bandito scrutinized the scrap and scowled. Then he smiled. “No, bandita. It’s a geocache!” And they hopped into the banditomobile and drove off.
