Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
You are searching for an APPALLING 4.5 cm cylindrical tube containing a log sheet only. This cache is NOT a simple park and grab like others in this series. You will definitely need your GPS unit or smart phone. The cap on the cache container will help you remove the log. In fact, the cap on the container is all you can see!
This cache is rated a 3.5 if you don't use the clue!
Thank you for playing Geocaching Jeopardy where the cache location determines the correct response. Please, be sure to phrase your response in the form of a question. (You don't really have to write down the answer when logging your find, although I like it when you do, but please be sure to encrypt it.) The answer to this clue is visible from GZ, but the name is NOT! You probably passed it when you parked your car.

Alex Trebek: It’s time to meet the contestants. But before we begin I would just like to say that each of our contestants has a significant other who have also qualified for Geocaching Jeopardy and will be appearing on a later show. Now, Kiltlifter Scott, what an interesting geocaching name. How did you happen to choose that particular nickname?
Kiltlifter Scott: Unfortunately Alex, due to pending litigation I won’t be able to answer that question at the present time.
Alex Trebek: I see. Well can you at least tell us whether you were lifting your own kilt or someone else’s?
Kiltlifter Scott: Again Alex, on advice of counsel I am advised to refrain from responding.
Alex Trebek: All righty then, I’ll look forward to hearing more about this when your case is settled. Let’s move on. UU Jester of Team-Ducky, we know you are a minister for a Universalist Unitarian congregation, but what made you and your wife pick the duck related name? Are you two bird watchers?
UU Jester: I’ll let my wife tell you her duck related story when she’s on the show, but as for me, I got my nickname back during my little league days. I was involved in one of the most bizarre plays in the history of organized baseball. I was all set to become the first player to ever hit a five run grand slam. (Obvious foreshadowing of a cache to come!) On the second pitch, I absolutely crushed the ball. I knew it was a home run and was already posing at the plate, when the ball hit a mallard flying by and the ball landed in the second baseman’s glove for an out. I’ve been known as “Ducky” ever since.
Alex Trebek: I’m sure that was a sight to see. I’m sorry we don’t have time to hear the rest of that story. Next, we have our current champion Tuffy of Tuffy&Vicki. I didn’t get very far yesterday in our interview and I’m hoping you’ll be more open today. So, Tuffy where di …
Tuffy: YOU talkin’ to ME? YOU talkin’ to ME? Well, I’m the only one here … so you must be talkin’ to me. Who the …
Alex Trebek: Okay, I can see we’re going to get nowhere again! Tuffy, you have control of the board. Go ahead.
Tuffy: YOU talkin’ to ME? YOU talkin’ to M … Oh, sorry Alex, umm, I’ll take De Niro roles for $200...
Alex Trebek: How appropriate! In the movie, “Taxi Driver” …….

Today’s Final Jeopardy category is “ The Gas Planets.”
The answer is, “El Fartero‘s favorite stopping point to eat, before exiting the Gas Planet Expressway (GPE) to drive the blue highways to Pluto and beyond.”

The FTF will win all the cache!
Special thanks to Tuffy, UUJester and Kiltlifter Scott, for appearing in this episode of Geocaching Jeopardy.
Congratulations to Kiltlifter Scott for FTF, even though his question isn't exactly correct. Close enough for me!
