Jokers' Cache Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Sludge_Shoveler: This was one of my favorite caches and I hate to let it go, but I've run out of metal ammo cans. New ones are just too expensive to keep losing. So, regretfully, I need to archive this cache.

I have checked the cache location and could find no trace of it.

Geocache Description:

This cache is for and about Jokers.

Please leave a joke in your on-line log. It can be a simple "A man walked into a bar. . ." joke, or it can be a joke you pulled on someone or someone pulled on you. Logs without a joke will be deleted.

This is a Traditional, Regular Size Cache with additional logging requirements (ALR's), therefore it needs to be a puzzle/mystery cache type.

It is in the west-bound rest area on I-96 just before the Okemos Exit.


I replaced the cache after being muggled, so I moved it a little further from well traveled areas in the Rest Area. It is about 350 feet from the nearest parking spot. The new coordinates are: N 42° 40.709 W 084° 24.263.


Jokers, you know the type. Jokers are people who always seem to have a "New" joke to tell. They can't remember to whom they have already told the joke, so they tell you the same joke over and over again. And you, trying not to hurt their feelings, provide a little laugh (although usually forced) at the appropriate times.


Jokers also like to "Pull" jokes on people. They do this despite the fact that the people, upon whom the jokes are pulled, seldom appreciate the joke.

Please post your favorite (or not so favorite) joke to your on-line log for this cache. It can be a typical "A priest, a minister, and a rabbi were talking. . ." joke, or it can be a joke someone pulled on you or you pulled on someone. If you are not much of a joker yourself, that's no excuse. Go to www.jokeswarehouse.com and cut-and-paste the "joke of the day".

All logs without a joke will be deleted. (Note: that is a joke. No logs will be deleted.) (Note: the previous note is a joke and logs with no joke will be deleted.) (Note: Psyche!)

Hopefully this cache log will become the world's most extensive collection of "Good" jokes. Have fun with this one!

The container is an ammo box. It is about 350 feet from the nearest parking spot. Poison ivy and snakes may be a problem.

Congratulations to the entire S.E.A.D.S. Team for being the First To Find! ! !
