Can You Guess What's Happening?

We thought we'd have a little contest this weekend and give out some clues about something really big happening this coming week. Your goal? To guess what this "big happening" is.

We wanted the clues to be somewhat subtle, so we're not going to say anything that's going to be be too obvious. But we also didn't want the clues to be so obscure that we wouldn't have a winner.

If we get feedback in the "comment" section that the clues we're leaving here are too vague or in any way too complicated, we'll come back in the post and make any necessary adjustments. After all, we want this to be fun.

Okay... We recommend you put on your Sherlock Holmes detective hat, or if you squint your eyes, or put on your reading glasses, or maybe get a magnifying glass, you might be able to decipher the clues we're leaving. Again, let us know in the comment section if the clues are too vague or obscure, and we'll change them. Remember, we want this to be fun.

Here's a preview of what we're going to be posting next week. But just remember, read very carefully. You don't want to miss the clues we're leaving for you.

Okay, on Monday we're going to post something on "Where in the World Are Matt and Brad?" We've picked out a destination that means a lot to both of us, but it's not a "typical location" where many college kids go for this "big happening." But it's actually the perfect destination for us, and we'll give you some clues and see if you can guess.

Then on Tuesday, we'll post something on "Here We Are!" and reveal our destination. We'll also explain why we chose to go here instead of some of the typical locations, and fill you in on what's happening.

So let's stop here a moment and rest. We encourage you to go back and reread what we've written so far. At this point, there are already three clues in this post. Like I said, the clues are not glaring at you and you might miss them if you're not looking closely. I just hope the clues are not too vague, but like I said, let us know if they are and we'll make them a little clearer. Just want this to be fun.

Then on Wednesday, we'll be sharing "OMG, Are They Really Doing That?" where we share some of the highlights of this "big happening" up to this point. I'm sure we'll have some interesting stories to share and we hope to include some fun things that are bound to have happened, as well as some unexpected things that are always inevitable when you get the two of us together!

Now for the really BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! Since we'll be getting close to St. Patrick's Day, on Thursday we're going to post something SIZZLING HOT for you. We can't even reveal the title of the post because it might be too shocking! We're not talking pictures or videos of hot, sexy, nude men. No! We're talking about something even better than that! Trust me! You're not gonna want to miss the Thursday post. Even if you miss Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, please for God's sake, DO NOT MISS THURSDAY'S POST! If you miss it, I guarantee you'll regret it the rest of your life and tell your grandchildren, "Honeys, your grandmother/grandfather actually missed reading Matt and Brad's famous Thursday post during their "big happening" way back in the year 2012." Your grandchildren will probably gasp in horror that you had the opportunity to read it and for some reason missed it. You don't want to scar your grandchildren for the rest of their lives, do you?

Okay, I guess that's all for now. At this point we hope you've had on your Sherlock Holmes hat while reading this post and have been able to decipher all the clues about what this "big happening" is.

Just so you know, we've dropped a total of six clues, and if you look hard enough, you should be able to catch maybe 30% of them. If you catch 60% of the clues we've left, you get extra points. If you catch ALL six, well, you will be awarded the Sherlock Holmes Genius Medal!

Good luck.... and stay tuned to next week (especially the Thursday post!). I'm not kidding. You're gonna LOVE it!
