This cache pays homage to Sheldon's variation of
the game "rock, paper, scissors", called "Rock, paper, Scissors,
Lizard, Spock." As Sheldon explains, when people who are familiar
with each other play "rock, paper, scissors", they will tie about
80% of the time. With 5 options instead of three, it becomes
statistically less likely for the two people to tie. That is, of
course, assuming both people aren't science nerds.
The cache should be a fairly simple find but I would recommend
finding it during the day light due to the dense bushes. Bug spray
is also highly recommended.
The Big Bang Thoery has many meanings, including the popular TV
show of the same name. This is the first in a series of 10 caches
created in a tribute to the Big Bang Theory and the hilariosity the
show brings to TV, in particular, Sheldon Cooper.
Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper are both brilliant physicists
working at Cal Tech in Pasadena, California. They are colleagues,
best friends and roommates, although in all capacities their
relationship is always tested primarily by Sheldon's regimented and
non-conventional ways. They are also friends with their Cal Tech
colleagues, mechanical engineer Howard Wolowitz and astrophysicist
Rajesh Koothrappali. The foursome spend their time working on their
individual work projects, playing video games, watching science
fiction movies or reading comic books. As they are self-professed
nerds, all have little or no luck with "popular" women. When Penny,
a pretty woman and an aspiring actress originally from Omaha, moves
into the apartment next to Leonard and Sheldon's, Leonard has
another aspiration in life, namely to get Penny to be his
girlfriend.
Sheldon, played by Jim Parsons, is the nerdiest of them all; the
king of the comic book geeks, the smartest of the group, and, of
course, the character with some of the most hilarious one-liners
known to the scientific community.
In my head, I see the nerds of Big Bang Theory enjoying geocaching
due to the technological aspect of using government-placed,
multi-billion dollar sattelites to find tupperware in the woods.
Maybe it's just me though, as nerds typically don't like the
outdoors, but I can dream, right?
