It was a mad dash…..for a $15,000 diamond ring from R.F. Moeller Jewelers “lost” somewhere in Minneapolis! Over 300 teams took off from Loring Park in Minneapolis in hopes they could gain enough points by running all over Minneapolis solving clues. All they needed was a phone to play and some text savvy. They traveled by foot, by bike, and even by rollerblades and scooters, but the best way to beat the crowd in this high tech adventure was to answer fast and right!

With a variety of sponsors including members of Go2Wed, Star Limo and Buttercream, teams completed challenges and answered trivia to move them throughout Minneapolis. Upon having to find “the FIRST Basilica located in the United States” they arrived at our challenge location, the St. Mary’s Basilica. Here they “Raced to the Altar” where one partner would drop to one knee for a proposal. Some couples re-pledged their love, some vowed to be friends forever, and for the guys who haven’t been down the rode yet, we watched squirm as they blew past the words to complete the challenge. After the challenge was complete, they were given their keyword “I do” which was used to get their next clue. And off they went.
It was a fun-filled, and might I add rainy day, but it all ended well at Bootleggers in Minneapolis where the dashers congregated to enjoy food from CRAVE and drinks as they awaited the results.
The top 5 teams all received prizes including Minnesota Twins tickets, a pair of his and hers watches, and $1,000 gift certificate to R.F. Moeller. The winner of it all, flew down the stairs from the second floor when he received the phone call that he was the winner!
