Pratical Joke On The Hiding Cacher!

[+Team HHD1]

When you post your find, type the following:

 

Took log book and pen, left a stick and pinecone that was close by...

 

 

Anyone else have a pratical joke idea?

 

 

 

 

Seriously, I have no intentions on doing this... I just thought it would make a good post!

I headed for a cache once that was listed as a 4.5 terrain. All the logs from the previous finders told tales of how difficult the cache was and how they barely made out of there dry and in one piece etc etc etc. One day, I got up the courage, packed a bag full necessities such as a first aid kit, spare clothes, cell phone, flashlight, extra batteries and other assorted items that I thought might come in handy for this harrowing ordeal I was about to undertake.

 

I arrived at the cache and found it exceptionally easy. When I opened the cache, I read a note from the owner. Apparently this was a "liar's cache". In order to log the find, I had to go back to the cache page a make up a story of how difficult the cache was and describe my many harrowing experiences while tracking it down.

 

Apparently the cache hider is quite the comedian. And the joke is on the rest of us.

 

I won't link to the cache or mention its name so as not to spoil it for anyone else.

Liars cache

 

This one was not easy, had to search for two micros in the woods. Spent about 45 minutes looking for the first one, the second one was an easy find. The fun was thinking of a really good lie.

We have a local cacher who always puts **DO NOT leave food items blah blah blah..** in his descriptions. When I see he has a new cache listed I will check that no one is watching it and log a find. In the log I will say I took nothing left hot dog or some other food item as a joke. I also leave crazy logs on some of my cach'n bud's listings and I promptly delete them. They get an e-mail of the log but when they go to look at the listing, it's not on there. It's a fun game to play sometimes.

Val's Big Boy This was a prank played on GarminArmin.

 

The liars cache is a great idea.

Here is a copy of a log we left for a cache in Stockton, California.

 

This was an interesting one. We were able to grab it and walk a distance away to open it. Started to go back but the entire area was taken over by a large group. Soooo - we took the cache.

Actually there was a second part to the log

 

Since we had to go back home to Nevada, my son-in-law, who lives in Stockton, said he would replace the cache in the early evening when no one was around. When we got home we had an email saying the cache had been replaced. Thanks for the cache.

I've left a long list of stuff I traded in and out of log only micros.

This cache, GC37F8 was a practical joke played on a special Arizona cacher.

 

I had to go to the way back machine to get a history for this and the text is hard to read with color of the text and background... but here is some backgroundinfo.

 

fixed link, but the hermit crabs have a much better one below.

Legna & sOulbAit hid a nano for us to hit 400 on. They gave us a travel bug and logged it into the cache page. We let it sit there a bit and people were looking for something big enough to hide a t/b in.

The link didn't work for me (there are two "http://" strings in it). Try this link instead (it also has a plain white background rather than that hard-to-read steel blue one).

I might have found a liar's cache or two.

I may have posted some logs that aren't entirely factual.

I might have even left a red herring in a cache.

I thought that you're not supposed to leave food in caches!

I know of a local cacher who attempted to play a jok on the local FTF hounds. The intended victims are frequently the first to find any local cache, and have racked up more than a few pre-approval finds.

 

Intending to tweak their tale just a bit, my friend disguised an exploding can of snakes from a joke shop as a new geocache. He made sure that the supercachers in question would know about the cache in advance, and had a good idea where to look (long story).

 

As luck would have it, one of the intended victims, who had long been unemployed, suddenly found a job, and the pair were unable to make the FTF attempt. Other innocent cachers became the victims of the joke.

My favorite log entry is:

"Took Everything - Left Nothing - Thanks for the log book!"

Ahhhh wimseyguy. . . the flagrant use of the words 'might' & 'may' - I have been victim to your logs - shame on you, shame, shame, shame.

Moose Mob that is my favorite line so far! I just might have to use that one!
