In order to solve this puzzle, you will have to find a song written
and performed by the leader of this group that is about a "sport".
In the lyrics of that song, four different sports figures are
mentioned and we will call them Figures A, B, C and D, in
the order that they are first mentioned.
The cache is located at N49 0J.KLM W122

Now for the fun stuff.
Count the number of letters in the full title of the song. The last
digit is J.
Figure A played in a very famous match/game/event. The score of the
loser in that game is K.
The number of letters in the last name of figure B is
L.
Now find the legal name of figure C. Take the
total number of letters in his/her given name and subtract the
number of letters in the surname. This is M.
Now find the birth name of figure D. Take the total number of
letters in his/her first name and subtract the total number of
letters in his/her middle name. This is N.
This sport has a Hall of Fame. Don't they all. The last digit in
the year that figure B was inducted into his/her Hall of Fame is
P.
The last digit in the year of birth or the third digit in the year
of death for figure C is equal to R.
Figure D had two different nicknames. One of them has 16 letters.
That is not the correct one. Use the total number of letters in the
other nickname for S.
The number of letter in the name of figure A is equal to
T.
You are looking for a sandwich size lock'n'lock which should be
easy to find.
Good luck, and as always, have fun.
