Flori-duh Update

Only in Florida–and Pamplona.

Nearly 7,000 participants and spectators turned out in Dade City last Saturday for the inaugural Great Bull Run at Little Everglades Ranch. The specifics: 18 charging, 1,500-pound bulls chasing seven waves of 500 people who had spent $65 each for the experience. No one was gored or trampled. Yes, everyone signed a release.

Founder and director Rob Dickens put the unlikely Pamplona-Pasco nexus into perspective.  “If it was a completely safe event, there would be no lure,” he noted. “You could die.”

Good point. Explains skydiving–if not texting while driving.
