🎶 Ready to go on a vinyl treasure hunt? 🎶
Starting February 2, 2026, 106.1 The Corner is turning Charlottesville into a Pink Floyd–powered scavenger hunt!

Throughout February, we’ll be hiding vinyl boxed sets of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here 50th Anniversary Edition at locations around town—and giving you clues to find them on the air.

Here’s how to play:

  • 🗓 One boxed set per week will be hidden, for a total of four chances to win.

  • 📻 Weekdays at 8 AM, 12 PM, and 4 PM, Corner DJs will drop fresh on-air clues pointing you toward that week’s hidden set.

  • 🏃‍♂️ Be the first to find it, and it’s yours! Once the boxed set is claimed, that week’s hunt is over.

  • 📸 Winners must agree to have their photo taken at the location, holding their newly won boxed set (bragging rights included).

  • 🤝 If two people arrive at the same time, staff at the location will decide who entered first—their call is final.

So keep your ears locked on 106.1 The Corner, lace up your walking shoes, and get ready to chase down a legendary album.
Happy hunting—and shine on! ✨🎧
