Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

Poor Luigi. It must be hard being the younger twin brother to the most famous plumber alive. It's all about Mario, right? Super Mario Brothers, Mario Kart, Mario Party, everything Nintendo is all Mario, all the time. Even his name comes from the Japanese word ruiji, meaning similar... as in similar size, shape, moustache, basically just a copy of Mario except green instead of red. (Although now that he's no longer 8-bit, he's usually pictured as taller and thinner.) Well, this cache is all about Luigi! To find the cache, you just need to answer some questions about Mario's "big" little brother.

Let's a-go...
