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.

Three sets of doubles in a row, however, land the player in jail.

A player also lands in jail if he lands on "Go to Jail" or draws a Community Chest or Chance Card saying "Go to Jail". When a player is sent to jail, they cannot pass GO or collect his $200 salary and his turn ends. If the player is not "sent" to jail but just lands on that space, he is "Just Visiting", incurs no penalty, and moves in the usual manner on his next turn.

If a player is in jail, he does not take a normal turn, and may either pay a fine of $50 to be released from jail, use a Chance or Community Chest Get Out of Jail Free Card, or attempt to roll doubles on the dice.

If a player fails to roll doubles, he misses his turn. If he fails to roll doubles three times, he must automatically pay the $50 fine to be released. While a player is in jail, he can still buy and sell property and buildings, participate in auctions, and collect rents. If a player does roll doubles, he may immediately move according to the roll, but he cannot roll a second time after exiting jail.

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!
