College Football Tailgating Areas

[Overkill Overkill]

HI all,

I was wondering if people have any experienice simply finding lost jewelry in grassy areas that people use for sports tailgating. How common is it to not even have to dig to pick up a recovered ring or other piece of jewelry from the previous drunken night?

True story: I was hunting down in Seabastian Fla. I was in this park and an old man came over shaking his head no at me. He said "your looking in the wrong place." So I was kneeling down and said to him" how is that"? He pointed behind an old backstop and said at least 100 women a day through balls to their dogs right over there. He then said You will probably find stufff right on the ground right over there . He walked away and about the time he left in his car I started to walk over to where he pointed . Bang was there for about 1 min . and saw a diamond tennis bracelet. And 3 other pieces.
My point is someone he knew or himself Had found something or lost something there . Treasure is where you find it OLD TAILGATING OR NEW JUST AS GOOD in my book . I would I magine if nothing else a lot of clad.W/the occasional goody JMHO. Rob

If you get a hold of Charles Garrett BASIC COIN HUNTING book . He lists over 2 to 3 hundred places to look for coins I recomend having a copy .I have mine and re-read it often . It will take the stalenees out of the hobby and keep giving you new grounds to hunt of course you still need permission . If people in mass ever congregated on a paticular piece of ground IE tailgating . go for it . That should be a good start for you .
