That's what I'm talking about!
The Scout on lounging in the shade on a summer day

Bugs

  • The Lucky No. 42 conflicts with equipping badges, although the two do not use the same equip region. This can be fixed by equipping the Lucky No. 42 before equipping a badge.

Trivia

  • This item is twice a reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, written by Douglas Adams. Throughout the course of HHG and its sequels, always carrying a towel is a running theme. The book also states that the number 42 is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. Another Scout item, the Holy Mackerel, references the number with its level.
