Geocache Description:


The Cache is not at the posted coordinates.

In no way am I promoting these products. Just sampling from their jingles. Add up the letters in your answers or use the answer if it so directs you and go to those coordinates. Some of these ads are almost as old as I am, so get ready...

N35 20 JIN  W94 23 GLE 

E: It calls itself the “King of Beers” in its jingle and mentions this number when those big Clydesdales pull the beerwagon. (It’s not Christmas till those mighty horses pull that wagon)

G: In 1971, Coca-Cola made a commercial about teaching the world to sing. In 1979, quarterbacks would sing a different tune. Coke released a commercial starring a very not-nice defensive lineman for the team about to win a then record fourth Super Bowl. Subtract his first name from his nickname.

I: After a 1979 change, a long time burrower of the ear. This is the 1st number sung during Empire Carpet’s jingle.

J: Ronald McDonald’s contribution to ear pollution was the ditty for their main burger. How many pieces of bread makes up this sandwich?

L: Back in 1971, Barry Manilow made us sing about…insurance. Yeah, even Weezer covered it. Use the number of letters in the first name of this Farm Insurance company. (Hint: there are 50 of them making up the U.S.)

N: This feline named candy bar’s jingle urges you to take a time-out to eat a portion of their candy bar. How many little bars make up a meowy candy bar?

Yeah, some are old, but how many are still ingrained in you memory? 

I remember hearing Empire Carpet's sung phone number when I was a kid almost 50 years ago. Starlight remembered it from her childhood and we have sung it when it played on TV at game night not too long ago. (guilty pleasure - I have the Coke commercial on my iPod)
