Secret Spam Can in Spenard (CM #36) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Dogliest: Cache is missing. I think the snow plows throw snow up and shake the sign, knocking the container off the sign. Anyway, this cache had a good amount of fun and let's see if someone else wants to play with spam Spen-Nard.

Geocache Description:




What is it about Spam and Alaska?  Alaska has the second-largest per-capita consumption of Spam, after Hawaii, which is probably why they were the last states admitted to the USA. "Spam" was firmly entrenched in modern daily life when the computer world adopted it -- bonus points if you know how that happened.

The Spenard neighborhood of Anchorage is the epicenter of Spam in Alaska. Sourdough Alaskans might recall the long-running Mr. Whitekeys comedy show about Spenard and Spam   Now, sixty years after statehood, a large can of Spam has appeared in mid-town Anchorage.  Have you noticed it yet?

Seekers might want to park at the designated parking space and get inspiration to find the cache.  Photos and spoilers are not just OK, but encouraged!  After all, this container mischief is not going to surprise anyone but muggles.  If you want more of a challenge, then leave your GPS in the car as the container is in plain sight.
