Is anybody up for a road trip to Minnesota? Because
there's free money stashed all over that that place?

Speaker 2 (00:12):
I'm sorry? What? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:13):
This is like part scavenger hunt, part Secret Santa, but
like kind of heartwarming at the same time, courtesy of
a guy known only as mister Minnesota lut Drop. Have
you heard of this online? No, that's his actual handle.
If you live in Minnesota, there might be free money
duct taped to like a park bench near you thanks

(00:36):
to this guy. Oh really, here's the deal. Mister lut
Drop hides small bundles of cash in public places across
the state and then posts video clues on social media
showing where to find them, close up shots, timestamps, cryptic
messages like look where the sun hits the stone just right?
And people are into this obviously it's free money.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
The scavenger hunts have become community wide events. Followers team
up to solve the clues, post updates, and cheer each
other on even if they don't win. So far, he's
given away nearly three thousand dollars of his own money,
not because he's rich, because he's not, or at least
that's what he claims. He funds it with what he

(01:23):
makes from gigwork.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Really, that's what he says.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Well, I guess if it's promoting it too, it's kind
of a little bit of marketing. So I guess it's
kind of smart. I don't know. Yeah, I don't Maybe
he does have a lot of money. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
He stays anonymous. He says he's not doing this for fame.
He just wants to bring a little hope to people
who are struggling. And here's the part that really gets you.
His dream is to eventually grow the project enough to
help his mom retire.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh jeez, why does he want to be anonymous?

Speaker 1 (01:57):
How do you help your mom retire if you're giving
away all the.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Money money, he's got money.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
It's fun, it's generous, and it's a reminder that kindness
doesn't have to be loud. Sometimes it's just wrapped in
duct tape and placed under.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
A picnic table. I love that so much.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
So if anyone wants to make a road turch of Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah, or start it here in West Michigan, yeah, you
let us know.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
