/Film reader Chris E sent us word that the Clown Travel Agency website has been updated, and the contents of the envelope have been revealed: A new scavenger hunt when involves locations around the world with the message:
“Ready to have a ball? A special bag of fun awaits the first to claim it, but you’d better strike fast, there’s no time to spare.”
As it turns out, all the clues lead to a location where they hand you a package which allegedly contains a purple and green bowling ball, an “Evidence Bag” containing smart mobile phone, a phone charger and a Joker playing card.
Thanks to the nice hardworking folk at SHH Forums for the photos. I’m sure when all the bowling balls are found, we’ll be in for a treat.

Been waiting all day for this, thanks.
April 1st, 2008 at 12:16 pm
I wonder what kind of message you will get on the phones you they give you????? Has anyone gotten anything yet?
April 1st, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Too bad there isn’t one close to me. That has to be a coo thing to get. Bummer.
April 1st, 2008 at 12:27 pm
Thank you for giving the credit to those (us) guys. We’re the people working hardest to get this stuff solved quickest, and so far we’re doing a damn good job.
April 1st, 2008 at 12:31 pm
Anybody know the Chula Vista address??? I could be there within 15 minutes… damn.
April 1st, 2008 at 12:41 pm
it’s probably the bowling alley @ 845 Lazo Court, Chula Vista, CA 91910
April 1st, 2008 at 12:42 pm
I would kill a human being for that bowling ball.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Actually I think all the or most of the addresses are or could have some thing to do with bowling alleys I actually live like 20 min from the one in Pasadena Tx and I checked the address online and its a bowling alley. I wonder what the stuff you get means? any one have some ideas?
April 1st, 2008 at 1:16 pm
They are all bowling alleys. That was confirmed (by me) on the SHH boards 7 hours ago. The balls have a number engraved into them, and they come with a cell phone and charger, and you’re supposed to call the number to let them know you have the phone. Later on down the road, they’ll call you and have you put together another puzzle.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Thnx for the info…..So would it be a puzzle for each individual person that got a ball and a cellphone or an entire puzzle for everybody as a group to solve? Man I hope that it could finish tonight to see whats gonna happen.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:28 pm
Thanks for the mention i was really tempted to go to London from the midlands to pick up the package but everyone told me that it would be a April fools.
The riddle that was giving was a interesting bit and makes you think how stupid you are that it just turns out to be a bowling ball.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:31 pm
“So would it be a puzzle for each individual person that got a ball and a cellphone or an entire puzzle for everybody as a group to solve?”
Well it’s both. The phone people will be working together, along with everyone on the internet helping them out. Sunday night, there were 500 people on the superherohype boards trying to solve an anagram puzzle.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:39 pm
I live like two minutes away from the one in pasadena anyone pick that up yet?
April 1st, 2008 at 1:40 pm
Cool lol I just read that the Pasadena Tx bowling alley the I was about to go see closed down 2 days before the site went public lol thanx to SHH I didn’t look like a stupid guy lol. So if I wanted to help how would I know where to go to help out to solve the puzzle?
April 1st, 2008 at 1:53 pm
how do u no if theyve been picked up yet?
April 1st, 2008 at 1:59 pm
go to the website then click on the paper inside the envelope after the that the message will appear read if you haven’t already then a list will come up. the ones with stamps next to them have already been picked up
April 1st, 2008 at 2:00 pm
They put a Stamp next to the address if it’s picked up. once this is done do you think they will reveal something cool behind the sheet Addict?
April 1st, 2008 at 2:00 pm

God damn, do I hope so. I’ve been sitting here for 8 or 9 hours now hitting refresh.
April 1st, 2008 at 2:07 pm
lol me too I have just been refreshing the page all day lol 5 more addresses to go w00t
April 1st, 2008 at 2:20 pm
Update from Portland -
My wife went to a bowling alley that we thought would be likely for the contest. The clerk said she couldn’t help her with the scavenger hunt — then quickly went to the bathroom.
My wife sat in front of the lockers until the contest uploaded the Portland address.
At about 2:03, the Web site uploaded, and she was indeed at the right alley.
But the locker was already empty. There is no way anyone else emptied that locker between when she got there and when the Web site uploaded — it was already gone.
April 1st, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Had the Chula Vista address been up sooner I would have been there by now.
April 1st, 2008 at 2:35 pm
BringTheRain: looks like some employee wasn’t playing by the rules.
April 1st, 2008 at 2:37 pm
3 More to go! I think those addresses will be revelaved in the next 15 minutes
April 1st, 2008 at 2:52 pm

April 1st, 2008 at 2:53 pm
They should be revealed in about 10 min now. I hope that this finishes around 7 pm central time
April 1st, 2008 at 2:53 pm
After 4? I’m going to be pissed if I have to wait until i get home from work to see what is revealed. They better find those cases FAST after 4:00
April 1st, 2008 at 3:04 pm
The new addresses are up 3 more to go and its done w00t
April 1st, 2008 at 3:08 pm

April 1st, 2008 at 3:23 pm
I hope not
April 1st, 2008 at 3:28 pm
I’ve gone onto the next stage. You register with acme security, they call your phone, you say the password. Now I’m waiting to see what happens.
April 1st, 2008 at 3:28 pm
AHHHHH! We finally get another link and he server is too busy!
Weak.
April 1st, 2008 at 3:37 pm
What’s the number?
April 1st, 2008 at 3:43 pm
It asks for a phone number, name and e-mail to log in to the security system. Then it calls you to confirm your password.
Then Jim Gordon comes on the line and basically tells us that this was all a trap. We’re now all GCPD recruits, otherwise we’ll be arrested as Joker Accomplices

It really makes me sad to think that there are millions of people starving, and homeless, or dying of an incurable disease all around the world, and yet there are so many privledged people who have the time and lifestyle to dedicate to solving a scavenger hunt developed by a corporation to make sure your buying a jumbo popcorn and filling a seat in a theatre this summer.
Yes, you should all be proud of how “damned hard” you are working on this.
April 1st, 2008 at 5:56 pm
….says the person that, like us, is on a movie blog site, not quite out curing world hunger either.
April 1st, 2008 at 5:56 pm
um, it’s fun, what’s wrong with fun?
so the worlds on fire, everything sucks, people are dying everywhere, and we’re not allowed to have fun.
lighten up, and enjoy the privilege your life affords you.
April 1st, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Holy crap, I’m in Venezuela and didn’t think it would work, but it did, it was the freakiest thing!!! Hahahahaaaa
April 2nd, 2008 at 8:05 am
BringtheRain:
if you listen to Jamin95.5 they figured out the clues before it was released to the public. They have the phone and bowling ball, not some employee of the bowling alley. if you listen to the playhouse in the morning you will hear all about it.
April 2nd, 2008 at 9:17 am
i found one of the phones are posted on ebay for $20,000.
obviously this person is not a real Batman fan. get outta Gotham u bitch!
