Geocache Description:

This cache is one of a series placed in and around the University of Tennessee campus. The series is best done on foot or on a bicycle as parking WILL NOT usually be readily available, especially on home football weekends. On weekends, (non football) after 5pm weekdays, and holidays, you should have no trouble finding a close parking spot.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DISCRIPTION BEFORE HEADING OUT TO FIND ANY CACHES IN THIS SERIES!

Every Satuday, when there is a home football game in town, you will find Fluffy's parental units stationed at the entrance to this building. They have worked a parking lot on homegame Saturday's somewhere on this campus for about 17 years.

Before this garage was built, they worked a lot behind Andy Holt Towers. The spot was OK when the weather was cool and clear but the early games of the season they cooked in the hot sun or they drowned in the rain. They worked there for about 10 years, until finally they were able to move here. Now they have a place where they can be out of the sun, rain or any other foul weather that might show up.

I have told them that I have placed a cache here and to expect to see people with GPSr's walking in circles trying to find the container. I didn't tell them to help you or not, so it is up to you to try to convince them to help you out.

Oh, one other thing. My Dad can be a bit, shall we say, misleading, at times. He likes to think he knows something no one else knows. So you may have to banter with him for a while to get him to point you in the right direction if you are having trouble finding the cache

Of course, if you don't come here on a homegame Saturday your on your own with no help from Daddy!

DO NOT park in any of the Staff or Commuter parking lots if you come before 5pm, M-f. You WILL get a ticket. (trust me on this, I used to be a ticket writer here and them people is vicious!)

If you come after 5pm on a weekday, during school breaks, or on the weekends, you may park in any commuter or staff lot, unless otherwise posted, or an event/home football game is going on.

Feel free to email us prior to your arrival and we will be happy to give you advise on where to park

If you come up empty handed, post a DNF, then email us for a hint.
