Geocache Description:

Note that there are four caches in this series. The first three (including this one) are standard hides and the last (The Marx Brothers - GC2EQ0D) is a bonus cache. Don't forget to gather the coordinate information you'll need to log the final from each of the three main caches, Groucho (GC2EPZZ) Chico (GC2EQ04) and Harpo (GC2EQ09). Parking coordinates are provided. Parking can also be found at N40 47.417 W73 27.319 if you are going to search for the other caches in this series.

Chico Marx

 

Chico is the brother with the Italian accent who played the piano. He was a very talented piano player, but he was not Italian! He was born in New York and died at the age of 77 in 1961.

Some of his movie lines are priceless – For example “I wasn’t kissing her, I was whispering in her mouth” and “I’d give you my seat, but I’m sitting in it

I just love watching Marx Brothers movies. They always had just the right combination of snide comments, slapstick and silliness for me. When my wife and I were dating, a number of the theatres in our neighborhood were running Marx Brothers festivals and we went from theatre to theatre. Basically, we spent the entire day laughing!

Whether you like their humor or not, I hope you enjoy this series of caches. The first three are straightforward. To log the final (The Marx Brothers (GC2EQ0D)) you will need to gather the correct coordinate components from each of the three main caches. Look on the inside front cover of the log book and complete the coordinates for the final

Have a great time!

The final cache (The Marx Brothers - GC2EQ0D) contains a special “First to Find” prize – A Marx Brothers DVD. Please feel free to take it or leave it for someone else if you are not a real fan.
