Geocache Description:

This is one of several caches in a series placed to commemorate one of my childhood games of all time. I hope you enjoy it too.

Almost everyone has played the popular board game “Monopoly”, or at least has heard about it. From the classic board design to the hundreds of other “opoly” spin-offs, is the best-selling board game in the world, sold in 103 countries and produced in 37 languages.

Parker Brothers' official instructions have long encouraged the use of house rules, specific additions to or subtractions from the official rule sets. Many casual Monopoly players are surprised to discover that some of the rules that they are used to are not part of the official rules. Many of these house rules tend to make the game longer by randomly giving players more money. One of these house rules is the Free Parking jackpot.

This pot, which usually consists of an initial stake (typically $500) plus collections of fines and taxes otherwise paid to the bank. A player who lands on Free Parking wins the jackpot, which may then be reset with the initial stake (if any). The jackpot is usually put in the center of the board. Since the jackpot forms an additional income for players in this set of house rules, games can take a much longer time than under normal rules.

This cache is placed in near park-n-ride area in the middle of town. Muggles can be close by, but stealth will be your ally here.

Please contact me if the cache needs immediate attention. Have Fun
