    HINT 1: I have been to my target's state once in my lifetime
    HINT 2: When I was in my target's state, it was to attend an NHL hockey game.
    HINT 3: The home team I visited has won the Stanley Cup within the last 10 years.

    Hint that means nothing to anyone but people who know me: I was born in my target state.

    I think I have my targets final box put together. Think because I'm still waiting a bit on sending, and might throw something else in if I find something cool.

    14 bottles
    7 different wants
    224 oz of stout, 44 oz of non-stout
    Of the bottles with ratings, a 95.18 average. None lower than 91, and three with a perfect 100
    One bottle with no official rating yet, bottle 414 of 1000

    Sounds like a good box! How about a hint or two. You're one of 4 potential senders I have left!

    My target lives in a state with at least one Laser Quest center. One of the centers sent a team to the National tournament last July, and lost to my team.

    Well after a little digging, I see Wyomissing (near me) had a team go. But I don't know who they competed against, or lost to. I see Texas had a couple teams, and we have Texas BIFs. And basically everyone meets your other hints. So I'm stuck unless I find the records of last years NAC! Haha

    Picked up what I think is the last of my target's box today. Planning to ship Monday (unless I end up getting more beer).

    For what it's worth, a team from IL, NC, MA, MI, and FL has won the cup in the last decade, all potential targets. Obviously excludes states I wouldn't be assigned (PA and NJ) and states without BIF members (CA)

    I realized I messed up a clue that may have my target thinking he's excluded. Oops.
