According to the rules of the scavenger hunt, "Those who spot the car at any point today and post a pic of it to @GoogaMooga on Facebook or Twitter with the # ExtraMooga and the one thing they're most excited about from the Extra Mooga line-up, will be automatically entered to win a number of prizes."

What kind of prizes, you ask? Booty ranges from 2 Extra Mooga tickets for the VIP "" to gift cards for Seamless.com and the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck, among others.
