Brainstorming: Potential Drop Locations Any ideas for potential drop locations?
From the trailhead thread:
Drop Location Ideas wrote:
Five Senses:
Sound - The EMP (Experience Music Project)?
Sight - Seattle Art Museum?
Taste - ?
Touch - ?
Smell - ?
Major Landmarks:
Seattle Center / Space Needle
Colombia Center
Smith Tower
Seattle Convention Center
Other:
Millennium Tower (2nd ave... apartment building?) This might be a long shot, but definitely still worth checking out.
Any other ideas? I'd like to dig a little deeper than the obvious landmarks.

I am trying to think of some other Seattle locations, but you've already covered a lot of the main places.
As for Taste, there's the Bite of Seattle which is at Seattle Center (of course)...
Also, with the Seattle ARt Museum, the restaurant is called TASTE.
also, what about the Pacific Science Center? There are laser shows and stuff... this covers a lot of senses. Haha.
Smell: Pike Place Market! Hah, although it doesn't smell good.

Major Landmarks:

Many of these seem to cover multiple senses, for example, the EMP is also a very visual and hands-on experience. I didn't know about TASTE! Great find. That could definitely be a potential location.
I wonder if the underground tour could be a possible drop spot; it definitely is an experience that appeals to sight, sound, smell, and touch. Plus, it's creepy, which ARGs love. Haha.
Just thinking out loud (via the Internet)!

Yes, the Underground Tour, which is something I have never experienced, but will be going to tomorrow for a work event! Heheh...
Not that there would be, but I will keep my eyes peeled for anything out of the ordinary?
Also, going on the "Sound" names such as Sounders, Sound Transit, etc... they play at Qwest Field, could be another optional location
Edit:
And completely unrelated, but I'm putting it anyway since I am just searching for stuff on the interwebs:

Also, on the Seattle Art Museum thing, there is a quote...
"The Inn at the Market offers special packages designed to appeal to all five senses!"
It appears it's already over, but still.

I will stop posting random useless stuff for now.

Not useless at all! You have a great eye for this stuff.
With the artistry involved in this campaign, SAM seems like a definite possibility.
