    I guess I will get the ball rolling on hints:
    My target is east of me and has a bunch of beers I either have or have access to on his two-page wants list. He will be receiving a number of MN/WI beers (because we are keeping this as local as possible- and I am working and staying in WI four days a week).

    My target apparently has a lot in common with Ungertaker's.

    I am not from WI/MN and neither is my target. my target may not like the sweater but i hope he will enjoy the beers. 100 ounces is just too light for my blood. i hope my target is thirsty

    My target lives west of me, enjoys beer and is going to get the ugliest sweater in the history of ever.

    My target lives West of me. It bodes well for my target that there is a certain Michigan brewery (not Founders) only release that I am going to before the deadline.

    my target is getting crushed, hope they won't be too furious. target is east of me and has a few beers on their wants I can hit, other beers that they will love will be in the box too.

    My target and I share distribution with one of my favorite local breweries. There goes half of my box :slight_frown:. My target will most likely not fit into any sweater I send them :grinning:

    My target and I are likely rivals in the football world.

    My target is East of me in a state that I have shipped to before. Chances are he will not like me because of my college football affiliation, but hopefully a good box of beer can change that.

    My target lives in State I've never shipped to nor stayed in. I plan on murdering his porch thoroughly. Also, I plan on adding a bottle of a homebrewed brandy aged imperial rye porter in his box!

    My target lives east of me in a state that basically gets to decide who's President for the next 4 years, a lot of shared distro, so I'm going to have to get creative!

    My target lives in a state that is at least reasonably important in deciding who is president. I have shipped to my target's state only once (or maybe twice).

    Also, based on where I went to school, I despise a university in my target's state. It's gonna be fun putting this box together! Since Miller is less than 8 minutes from where I live, you can't get much more local than that...

    East of you? Shouldn't be that hard to narrow down then.

    My target lives in a State that has my favorite NFL football team , Should be able to hit a want or two and my wife has plans on doing some creative stuff to the sweater .. I may or may not wait till the last minute to ship before Christmas because I would really like to throw in a bottle from the next Jackie O's release in the box....
