So be a responsible Gisher and don’t leave until the debris is gone.ĥ4. IMAGE: My grandmother, Dorris, lives in a retirement home called Roland Park Place (RPP) in Baltimore, MD. Have you ever read the “Rime of the Ancient Mariner”? Why not? What’s wrong with you? Let’s just say killing an albatross (which, although from a completely different family (Diomedeidae) than the seagull (Charadriiformes), they do both have wings, and think the ocean is a good place to poop - so they are pretty much brothers) is not good karma and it shall haunt you for life. Otherwise, seagulls will eat them and they will die a horribly painful and drawn-out death. ![]() IMPORTANT! Participants must collect and dispose of ALL balloon shrapnel at the end of the battle. You must circle "you" or your representative (if you don't live near SF) in the image that you submit so we can identify that you were there. You must have a friend capture the event with a video or photo (don’t get your phones wet) or, if you don’t have a photographer attending with you, you may get a photo with the gishwhes representative at the event-they will be wearing a royal blue beanie. ![]() It will last exactly 7 minutes! After this time has expired, the battle will be over and BOTH teams MUST clean up the water-balloon shrapnel (see below). At exactly 12:10 PM, the ultimate water balloon battle will ensue. Bring at least 12 water balloons (pre-filled with water). If your team name has an even number of letters in it, you are a member of the proletariate and you must dress in over-alls or blue-collar apparel. If your team name has an odd number of letters in it, you are an executive and you must dress business-snazzy. Show up Monday afternoon at NO LATER than 12 PM at Dolores Park in San Francisco (the flat side of the park at Dolores Park entrance). This is the final showdown between the Haves and the Have-nots.

The people participating in GISHWHES are not allowed to post pictures of this years items on social media as the hunt is going on, and if they do it will be a penalty because those points for that item will not count for their team. The team with the most points wins! Of course, every year, there are new items on the GISHWHES list. Also, each item you complete for your team has a different amount of points. Misha, fellow co-stars of Supernatural, and celebrity friends of Misha make the items. The list’s items range from creating things made of feminine products to wearing a William Shatner mask in NYC to making socks for the homeless. People from all parts of the world race against each other in teams of 15 as they try to gain the most points by completing the items on the list. For this year’s event, the hunt started on July 30th and will end on August 6th. GISHWHES stands for the Greatest International Scavenger Hunt the World Has Ever Seen. Misha Collins, who plays the angel Castiel in SPN, has been hosting this event during the first week of August for a long time now. ![]() ![]() This worldwide, record breaking, international scavenger hunt has grabbed the attention of millions of fans of the tv show Supernatural for a whole week as they try to complete 300 items on a list that Misha Collins revealed on the GISHWHES website.
