For some odd reason...

... the promotors at Maple Grove have decided to host a bull run at the track next year. As in, a Spanish style bull run with people on foot running away from male bovines. Guess they'll try anything to lure fans to the stands...

Has your local track done off the wall stuff like this to generate interest?

I asked if the mower decks had to be removed or disabled, and got called a wimp....

Heard on the news today they're doing this in several cities.

You Guys aren't looking at the bright side, it saves you the Airfare and other expenses of going to Spain plus when the Bull Gores you will be Hospitalized locally and your Family won't have to spend the money to fly to Spain to be with you, there now doesn't that sound better?

Darn right! City folk have NO IDEA!
They think it's all fun and games!

I think I would sign up to run with the bulls, I certainly did my share of that on the farm and think I could avoid unreasonable injury... trying to figure out why they are doing it at a drag strip and not down Penn Street in Reading.

That storyline is nearly amazing. That's the most amazing thing I've heard of this week.

I've always thought that running with the bulls (and bull riding for that matter) is a pretty even contest, intellectually. A dead heat when the green flag drops. Whoever wants to do it is wanting out of the gene pool anyhow.

Let's position the PETA folks with their signs right in front of the bulls. That'll give everybody else a better chance to go home safe.

Say no to running with bulls!! I couldn't glance at the screen for a second when I tried to watch this yesterday:
