He would like to visit many new and interesting places along the way and move quickly from place to place. Please help him in his quest. Thank you.

About This Item

T.R.O.T.S.D.T is a dummy sprint flip phone. He is the display model that cell phone dealers use to give the customer a feel for the phone. He was saved from certain destruction at the hands of a garbage crusher by his friend and benefactor Kleenur and now wishes to see the world since he is unemployed. On his back he has a tattoo that reads Tokyo to Woodsville. Feel free to give him more Tattoos and any souvenirs he can carry from his travels.

Even though there's no direct flights to Japan from the middle-of-nowhere Washington, we picked this one up to help move it further west...

Great travel bug - I am sorry to see that it has not made the trip to Japan yet, but we will try to help it get a little further west.

I was hoping this bug was returning from Japan when I nabbed him - I figured Florida was a long way in the wrong direction, plus we all know those lizards seldom pay their cell phone bills, so back to Colorado.......

Picked it up when we and Stan "Beta-tested" the cache series, since I'm afraid, even in the super-charged SoCal geocaching environment, that the TB might have been there a good while. We'll see.... a 12 mile hike nothing to sneeze at, especially in the summer around here... Meanwhile, we will take the TB on a nice tour of all the sights at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. Pics soon.

  • Mushu shows off the TB for us at DCA
  • Another "Goofy Phone" in Toon Town
  • Screamer and the TB Can you scream "CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?" on screamer [that's the name of the coaster at DCA]
  • Even Dumbo needs a phone at Disneyland
  • The TB at the site of a very famous phoine at DL This location is locally famous. It was previously occupied by a different cell phone, the last actual geocache at Disneyland, which ended rather tragically. See GC942E "Phone home by 4forfun" for the details.
