I don't believe you went out there and "just found another one"!! This is insane. Where is my bottle and a glass of ice??

I was calling it quits when I hit that target. I couldn't believe it either. I didn't know what was on it untill I got home and washed it off, all that I knew was that I had found one.

So if the one with the 2002 is the "Key" one in a set. This means that there are at least 2 sets out there.

Oh man. I'm not sure if I can figure out 2 sets or 1. Holy crap. Or is it Holy crape.

The symbols inside the zero's match the flags of north and south Korea.

I can't find anything where North and South Korea both participated in any sports event together in 2002.

You ain't the only one...lol.

from wikipedia:

The 14th Asian Games were held in Pusan, South Korea from September 29, 2002 to October 14, 2002. A total number of 6,700 athletes competed, coming from 44 countries, in this edition of the Asiad. There were 38 sporting events and 18,000 journalists, officials and athletes.

It was the first time in the history of the Asian Games that all 44 member nations of the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) participated. That included North Korea, which sent an unprecedented delegation to the South (including a shipload of fans) and Afghanistan, which returned to the Asian Games for the first time since the Taliban came to power nearly a decade ago. Body building made its debut.

PLEASE do not throw "virtual" eggs or something at me K??

But... what if the first zero is the Pepsi symbol?

 

[savant365]

Don't worry mystry, we will take help from whom ever wants to give it. I have looked for these with pepsi in the search and still came up empty. Some fresh blood is very welcome. Keep after it.

Did the guy from Craigslist that IDed this game get the 20 bucks?

No, but I did tell them that was being looked into and they were at the top of the list in case that is what they turn out to be. And the other guy who said he had some of these too, never wrote back. I even wrote him again to confirm he got my first email.

it does look like a star

Guys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think, I got it now !!!!

These game nuts for the Korean kids Jack Stones Game (gonggi) were made with these logos and signs to celebrate the long and unbelieved proces towards the inter-Korean sports exchanges agreement of the year 2002 !!!!!
The many nuts with basketball will relate to the sensational Baskeball game mentioned in the first link.

I think the many signs and logos relate to exactly the sports and events in which cooperation was agreed !!

Nothing about car races

Close up of 2002. Are these really stars in that last zero?

 

[savant365]

I don't know for sure if they are stars or not. I was just following the clues. When the possibility came up that they might be a Korean game I just noticed that the symbols in the zeros looked a lot like the symbols on both North and South Korea's flags. I could be totally wrong (and according to my ex wives I always am). If anyone can come up with some other possibilities I would be more then happy to look else where 'cause so far this has been a dead end like all the rest.

I was thinking the same thing as far as the meaning of the symbols. But under close obsevation, I'm not so sure now. I think it was the lighting and shadowing in the other photos that made it look more like a star. I tried a different angle with this photo and it showed up a lot better.

 

[savant365]

I just found this on Korean car races. It is connected to the unification. But this is from 1999 so I don't know if they ever did it again or not.
