Chicago students seeks Al for organs

Files this under ‘News of the Weird… Al’. The past four days, University of Chicago students ran around taking part in what is perhaps the world’s largest scavenger hunt. Among the items sought after were

  • a tar gun and a feather gun [18 points]
  • a voting receipt from the Democratic Party primary of Guam, Indiana, or North Carolina [4 points]
  • 22818877@N06
  • Have a Nobel Prize winner or “Weird Al” Yankovic witness your organ donor registration. [15 points for a Nobel laureate, 16 points for "Weird Al"]

That’s right, imagine if “Weird Al” was a Nobel laureate, too! I dunno, maybe for Physics or Most-Bean-Burritos-Eaten. He’d be worth a whopping 31 points!
