Chi-town via Arkansas via Missouri
Fri. October 3, 2008Categories: Uncategorized
So Missouri sucked! Okay not the state or the people in it, they were great! We sucked playing in Missouri. We played an intense day racking up points and bonus looking to take back 1st and wouldn’t you know it we forgot to take an important picture that cost us 50 points. Ah and it was a special defeat because we rolled into the final destination at the Bentley dealership in St. Louis to simply be shot in the ass with one question… “Where is the picture of the statue of liberty…” Ahhh what a day
Okay so check this out, never thought that I would be able to say that I’ve been running through the corn fields of Arkansas doing 100 but now its apart of our personal history. Seriously there is nothing like going down a two-way two lane highway with nothing but corn on the left of you and corn on the right of you. Our missions had gotten harder, hard to the point where we had no idea if we were even in the right place. We got through our missions but it took much longer than expected.
There is a reason for that…
Prior to this day Shaun lost his lucky penny and it all went to hell since then. Luckily though as we passed through Pontiac Illinois (via route 66) I found an antique coin place and got Shaun and a couple of lucky pennies. So after that we got our mojo back and we are pulling back into the race looking to finish in the top 5.
Seriously if you can withstand the cold of Illinois winters… this is a place to live we were in Dupage Illinois and there were some insane property with all of the comforts of a big city just 20 min away.









Hey guys - surprised that not one of you had a picture of that liberty lady in your wallet - after all you are from NEW YORK!!! - still think you are all so great to be doing this for such a great cause - enjoy it to the end.
What an adventure!! Top 5 is cool, but the reason why you’re doing this makes all of you first place winners.
