Welcome to the Purdue Boilermakers Geoart Series, presented by 13RPoor. This series is the first geoart series in the Fort Wayne area. 13RPoor is a proud Purdue alumni, and obsessive Purdue sports fan! Coordinates are not at posted location. In this series, you will be required to answer trivia-type questions about Purdue University to find the true coordinates; including university history, traditions, and sports. Most answers can be found with a google search, while some might take a little bit more research to find the answer (don’t worry, 13RPoor is a nice fellow and will help a struggling cacher). Lots of hours were put into making everything for this series, so please do your part to take care of the caches by replacing them as you found them, watching out for muggles, and CITO. PLEASE POST DNF’s TO ALERT ME OF POTENTIAL PROBLEMS!!!! I hope you enjoy the series as much as I enjoyed making the series. Remember, Geocaching may be dangerous! Boiler Up, Hammer Down, Hail Purdue
Purdue University created it's first football team (first picture) in 1887, under the leadership of coach Albert Berg. The Boilermaker football team first called Stuart Field (second picture) home from 1892-1924. On June 2, 1924, ground broke for a new football stadium on the university's campus. When it opened on November 22, 1924, it had a seating capacity of 13,500. Renovations to the stadium have increased the capacity to just over 52,000. More recent renovations have seen the addition of a press box that spans the entire length of the field, permanent lights above the stadium, and a south end zone renovation project.
