Geocache Description:



*Above listed coordinates are for parking only*

Tony the Tiger is one of the greatest advertising icons ever. When I was a kid, I always wanted to meet him. I thought if I could, he would teach me to roar “Grrrrrrreat” just as he did. Well that never happened, and actually all I really wanted to do was pull his tail to see if that was why he roared. This is my tribute to Tony the Tiger. Solve the puzzle for the coordinates. Happy caching.
