+willybee Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 just wondered if there were any celebrity geocachers that anybody may have noticed or come across (a.k.a. moviestars, professional athletes, radio personalities...etc.) of coarse they probably wouldn't use thier real name anyway...not many people do.

+Snoogans Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Wink Martindale? really? That's exactly what I thought. I've heard unconfirmed rumors that Jimmy Buffet might be a geocacher, but not a peep about Wink. Quote Link to comment

(Not a slam on ya, just an observation...) Shame you didn't think to ask him. If he was, you would have known of another celeb cacher. If not, betcha he might have taken it as a story idea and we could have gotten some major exposure on the Today show when the follow-up story was constructed. -Dave R. Quote Link to comment

tubby and Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 i knew a guy who knew Neil Patrick Harris. THE Doogie Hauser. He has a similar cuteness to Wil Wheaton. So i guess that makes me pretty much awesome or something, ok? And another thing, i can almost get my hair to look like THE Donald's hair. So everyone should just stop persecuting me about my perm already or i'll get all up in some of there (SIC) grill cages. Quote Link to comment

+Mr Hedgehog Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I remember reading a magazine article fairly recently that was written by Stuart Maconie, a BBC radio presenter, in which he mentioned GC.com and the fun he had had geocaching. Quote Link to comment

Jeremy Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Yup he's a geocacher, but he hasn't logged in here since Jan of 2004. Based on Wil Wheaton's blog, he still geocaches, but I don't think he bothers logging them on the web site. Quote Link to comment
