Having received a clue that narrows it down to a two-block area, I’m still unable to solve this one. Christine Dean has it figured out, but hasn’t leaked the answer yet.
That kind of selflessness can only be motivated by a deeper need for fulfillment and gratification. We see right through you, Ms. Dean. We see right through you.
I googled that address, and the only place it showed up is Glasgow in 1903. When I googled the alternate spelling of 27 Seymour St., I found a real estate listing in Preston, Victoria, Australia.
“I googled the address” is a better chuckle than the grade school joke Who wrote the book Under the Bleachers? Butts is an obscure lead to the answer Seamore/Seymore/Seemore.
Twenty years ago when my son started riding the school bus, he came home with the gem how do you get a 12-inch penis? “Fold it in half” has become a much-used punchline.
I walk by it one or two times a week, so for me it’s like shooting fish in a barrel. Not sporting. Once when Barrett posted one from West Duluth I rode my bike around looking for it (it was the pic on the side of the laundromat) and even though I never found it I had fun looking. Why would I steal that joy from others?
When this post went up I had a strong feeling I had been to the spot in question. But I was wrong. I would have never figured this out without Ms. Dean’s clue. It’s on the pedestrian walkway alongside Piedmont Avenue / Highway 53 between 22nd and 23rd avenues west.
I’m pretty sure I’d never walked the tunnel under the highway until now.
When I went through, I imagined Ms. Dean would be on the other side, brandishing brass knuckles. Then I’d turn around to go back the way I came and Ramos would be standing there cackling madly.
Very good to see Ms. Dean shaming Mr. Lundgren into solving this puzzle.
I will just add that the east side of the tunnel offers a picturesque view of a little waterfall, which is your last chance to see Coffee Creek before it flows into a culvert and disappears forever.
Alas, the brass knuckles come out. I believe it was a purchase (perhaps the spring of 1979 or maybe ’80) from the Last Place on Earth. The receipt will show the knucks, five cans of coke snuff, a mid-size bong and a used Jimmy Buffett album. The Buffett was later signed at a now-defunct Riverfest concert in St. Paul.

It’s hard to believe anyone would voluntarily give up the glory and prestige of guessing a Where in Duluth.

27 Seamore Street.

First hint: It’s in North America.
Zooming out a bit.

Good job, Paul! Last time I walked through that tunnel it smelled strongly of weed and there was a dude hanging out with his bicycle on the far side.
