Over the years, the hunt has attracted thousands of participants from all over the globe. Teams of students, alumni, and community members compete to solve a series of puzzles that lead them all over the city of Chicago and beyond.

The puzzles are notoriously difficult, and the challenges are often outrageous. Teams have been known to dress up in costumes, perform stunts, and even break the law in their quest to win. But the hunt is also about much more than just puzzles and prizes. It's about teamwork, friendship, and the shared experience of a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

In And Other True Stories From The University Of Chicago Extraordinary Scavenger Hunt, author and former hunt participant John Hodgman tells the behind-the-scenes story of this extraordinary event. He interviews participants, organizers, and puzzle writers to give readers a glimpse into the world of the hunt. Hodgman also shares his own personal experiences, from his early days as a rookie scavenger to his eventual victory as a team captain.

The result is a hilarious and heartwarming book that captures the spirit of the hunt and the people who make it possible. And Other True Stories From The University Of Chicago Extraordinary Scavenger Hunt is a must-read for anyone who loves puzzles, adventure, or a good laugh.
