Since the first two numbers are such clear lat/long, it seems to me that the last number must be a compass bearing... but to what?
In the near range, it points to The Globe Bar and Grill....

But what about in the far field. Somone posted that it points to Manchester....
Well, yeah, sort of.

In fact it's kinda close to the Manchester Memorial High School, where the FIRST FIRST games were held (took a while to find that name).
But it's still not close enough. The real heading to this school is 337 (not 342)
I was thinking that the clue was that the game would be a repeat of the 1992 game
Magneic deviation does mess with things, but it's about 15 degress in boston, so that's too much difference.
Sigh... Jerry Garcia is looking better all the time Steph
