10 minutes and counting until New Orleans, Pittsburgh, Columbus, and Washington D.C. go live. Good luck everyone!

EDIT: And Tampa too.

Good luck to everyone today, I was hoping I would be on the ground in ATL today but alas, it isn't to be. I will be helping out several folks online though so I still get to participate...kinda...

Looks like Tampa went live too. Was that a last minute change? If so, hope someone's on it!

I haven't seen anyone speak for it. I hope it gets covered, I have a friend in Tampa but she is working and can't make the run...

Hey all. Just got back from the New Orleans drop. It was attached to a bench in Audubon Park. Met a nice guy there who had gotten a promotional email from Sony yesterday, cluing him in to the drop. I gave him the unfiction address and hope that he'll be able to join us. Unfortunately, my camera wigged in the car and I have no photos. Sad

Anyway, be advised! I know that earlier in the thread that there were a few people who noted numbers on the backs of the locks. I had one too. I think that might have been the real reason for the drops. Unfortunately, now it's probably too late to figure out whatever clue it might have been.

The number on the New Orleans lock was 52 by the way.

Good job! Maybe the number was to help the PM's organize? I would rather that than a missed clue...

All of the first round but Tampa are done. I have a bad feeling that one is going to be missed. Any chance your friend can go on her lunch break? easy money, and it looks like it is right downtown.

My sister got the Kansas City Drop! I'll post details of the amounts in a minute, but for what it's worth the lock had a number on it too, #63.

More details in a few minutes...

EDIT: More Details!

Kansas City Drop Details:

2 $50 Swedish Kronors
1 $200 Mexican
1 $100 Euro
1 $20 Canadian bill
1 $50 Norwegian Kronor
1 $50 New Zealand bill
1 $20 USD

Total USD: $328.05 (roughly)

Oh sorry! Between us, it was:
New Zealand $50
Bank of England $50
USD $20
Euro $20, and $100
So about $277.22 USD

Wish me luck for NY, please post here if the coordinates change. My boyfriend is home on the computer but you guys might catch the change faster.

No, sadly she can't. She lives an hour outside of Tampa and by the time she could get there the drop would be gone. Is there no one else in Tampa that wants free money?

psyrax, jamesblond, some dude that walked away and I met at the location in minneapolis. LOCK WAS NOT THERE.

Dude that walked away, walked away. Eventually some guy got off the bus and walked up to us asking if we were waiting for the lock (this was around 10:50)

He said he was the scout that was stuck on the bus and asked who was there first, which was Jamesblond.

He handed the entire lock over to him and walked away saying "Pretend you didn't see me". I eventually remembered that I had a camera and took a pic and he was half a block away. Pics of our stash too.

120 us and various other currencies. James says he is going to go covert them and divvy out to us at the next drop.

Meeting up at a Dunn Bros this time where I actually have internet and don't have to call people last minute.
