Everyone appreciates sauces. Béarnaise, Béchamel, Worcestershire, soy, Sriracha--a thousand others--we all get lathered up over a favorite sauce.
Which might explain why the Avon Lake Public Library in Avon Lake, Ohio, has found over thirty empty bottles of A1 steak sauce hidden behind the book stacks on shelves since January 1st. Why?

But someone out there believes A1 and Hemingway are on the same level.
"There’s no label, and the labels have been peeled, but you can tell there had been a label on. They’re dishwasher clean, dry inside and out, just a hint of A.1. still lingering in the bottle," said the library's Jill Ralston to Cleveland television station WOIO.
So someone is huffing the A1 bottles?
Anyway, according to Ralston, sometimes the library staff members find three or four hidden bottles a day. She worries it's some game and the library doesn't know the rules.
"Are we messing up the game by finding them and removing them from the shelf? I have no idea," said Ralston.
If so, this is the trippiest game of hide-and-seek anyone has ever played.
