CHICAGO, May 12 (UPI) -- Participants in the 22nd annual University of Chicago scavenger hunt said they had a great time traveling as far as Las Vegas to compete in the wacky event.

The event, deemed the world's largest scavenger hunt, ended Sunday, allowing nine teams to relax after four days of searching for unusual items and completing bizarre tasks at the drop of a hat, the Chicago Tribune reported.

There's a lot of brain power going into academic problems. This allows us to take another kind of brain power and put it into frivolous, trivial but completely enjoyable tasks, said David Pisano, a 21-year-old senior.

This year's hunt even involved flying a group of students to Las Vegas to seek out D list celebrities and photograph themselves with beauties competing in the Miss Hawaiian Tropic International Model Search Swimsuit Competition.

They're international swimsuit contestants. I had no complaints, Pisano said.

MIAMI, May 12 (UPI) -- A Florida woman says she is suing her husband for at least half of the $600,000 in lottery winnings he tried to hide from her.

Former model Donna Campbell, 48, said she had to search the Internet to find out her husband, Arnim Ramdass, 52, and 16 other Miami International Airport mechanics won $19 million in the lottery last June, The Miami Herald reported.

Campbell said she is entitled to the money because the lucky ticket was purchased with marital assets. Ramdass contends he owes her nothing.

The distressed 1979 Miss Trinidad and Tobago beauty pageant runner-up said her husband disappeared from their home after she found out about his winnings. She said he only visits during the day to work around the house.

The case is set for a hearing Thursday when Judge Jennifer Bailey will decide whether the lawsuit will move on to trial, the Herald said.

LONDON, May 12 (UPI) -- A British woman said her missing Jack Russell terrier was excited to return home after a psychic used supernatural methods to pinpoint his location.

Nikki Newcombe, 35, was relieved to have her dog, Marmite, return home after he spent a week stranded in a hole, the Mirror reported.

Newcombe went to Pea Horsley, a London woman who says she has psychic abilities, for help after having no luck finding the lost pooch on her own.

Horsley used her abilities to tell Newcombe about landmarks the dog traveled past before falling into the hole, the Mirror said.

Sure enough, Newcombe took Horsley's advice and found Marmite barking from a hole in the ground.

It's one of the quickest I've found, Horsley said.

TREDWORTH, England, May 12 (UPI) -- An outraged British man said he sawed his son's car in half after local authorities clamped it for no reason.

Ian Taylor, 40 of Tredworth, England, said he was so upset to find his son's Ford Fiesta was impounded, he was prompted to use a power disc cutter to chop it in half to stand up for his beliefs, the Sun reported Monday.

Taylor said the car was registered to be parked off the street, but the clamper nailed him because two inches of the back end was sticking out of the driveway.

I had to make a point. The vehicle was totally legal where it was. It was a drastic step but I stand by my decision, Taylor said.

Taylor said he told the clampers they could take the back end of the car because it was the section that violated the rules.
