+199 about 15 minutes ago when I voted.
01/17/2012 at 10:32 am #1955233Up over 300 at 4:33 a.m. 8) .
Looks like the “vote late, vote often” strategy is helping!
On the Left Side of the Road...01/17/2012 at 5:55 pm #1955234+315
01/17/2012 at 6:16 pm #1955235Still holding around 300. Maybe the candy budget ran out or he had to go buy another Steelers fathead!
On the Left Side of the Road...01/17/2012 at 6:19 pm #1955236I think it has to do with the Packers out of the playoffs now. The Packers are no longer in the national spotlight. Steele’s friends will forget about them now.
But we cheeseheads are still gonna keep voting for Rick because they are our Packers. Well, except for Sandlanders and Big Jim π They are only voting to support a fellow geocacher π

Just saw Rick live on the “Pack Attack” show on Channel 9 (WAOW) out of Wausau.
Might be a coincidence, but not long after this posting, Rick took a nice lead of 200-300 votes. Do it again! Do it again! There should be another TV station in Wausau, four in Green Bay (get the UP vote too), not to mention sports radio programs all over the place.
And taverns, lotsa taverns, ey?…………….even Sports Bars. π

My theory is… and this is just a theory…
School administration found out what was going on and put a stop to it. I haven’t been watching when the votes are coming in real close, but it seems that Steele’s votes are coming in later in the day now rather than during school hours.01/17/2012 at 9:41 pm #1955239@Team Black-Cat wrote:

I thought of sending an e-mail to the principal myself, but never pulled the trigger. The middle-school comments have stopped, so maybe Rick even decided to take the high road and had a talk with his students about sportsmanship β

01/17/2012 at 10:53 pm #1955240Thanks again everyone. The support I get here just seems more special to me, I think, because us geocachers have always been just a little bit ‘underground’!
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Steele doesn’t have an answer for the active campaigning, now that he’s tapped all of his students.
Our vote count was back up on Monday to 782 votes for us! (moved an additional 130 votes ahead of Steele)
When I was at Pack Attack on Monday, I had one of my campaign cards signed by Johnnie Gray (Packers safety 1975-83) I will be giving it to whomever casts vote #10,000. That should be Thursday morning early. My son and brother who have big blocks of votes aren’t eligible and will help to get the vote count up close, so that voting doesn’t stagnate as people wait for that number.
Good luck everyone, and thanks for the votes!

Believe me, we wouldn’t be voting for Rick if he were just any geocacher. He’s a geocacher who is a diehard fan with a great bio and backstory to go with his personae and nomination. Who better to represent all of the Packers fans who love the team as much as he does?
And if BigJim and I were really nasty, we’d be voting for that “other” guy just so that it would tick everyone off if he were to win. π But we’re not that way because we are kind, sweet, forgiving Bears fans who can overlook our team differences to be nice to our green-and-gold friends. π π
Two more votes for the Mayor from two sandlanders just now.

Yeah, what Pat says. Plus, even though I am not, never have been, and never will be a fan of the Green Bay Packers, I am a resident of Wisconsin. I just think that it is wrong for someone from Pennsylvania who has only been a fan for 10 years to even be considered for the HoF.

Just remember Todd, just like you and I, they are die-hard fans of their team through and through. They are not voting for Rick cuz he a geocacher, They are voting for Rick because he is a Packer fan an because he shares that love for the Green & Gold with everyone. I will never disrespect anyone for choosing who they root for, I may give them grief for it, but I will not disrespect them for it. A gal I use to work was Viking fan for years and years. She had all the Viking gear and stuff. Well , a few years before Farve and Holmgren won the Super Bowl, she became a Packer fan and tothis day she still say she a Packer Fan. I tell her you maybe today, but you are not a die-hard , bleed green & gold and stuck with them through the lean times fan.
