Started in 1997, this finnish summer event has been going on for ten years already. What began as funny thing to do with small group of friends is now transformed into much larger event. This year

I don't even get how people like Beer. It stinks :-/. But I guess everyone has their preferences :-/.

Everyone's first beer tastes horrible.

The second one, not so bad.

The third, you could learn to like it,

4 - 10,000 they go down real smooth.

In the nanny state of the free and the home of the brave the cops would shut this down long before it ever started.

True. But if you look at the accident records for fatal and injurious boating accidents involving alcohol, it begins to make sense, just like making drunk driving illegal.

Everyone's first beer tastes horrible

Certainly did... was bitter, don't like bitter.

The second one, not so bad

Was so... still bitter, don't like bitter.

The third, you could learn to like it*

Maybe*, but was put in a headlock when messing around; I was dizzy and didn't realize I was moving both of us until we went through the bathroom door and my fellow cohort immediately released me when we smashed the metal shower stall (Dad was not happy!). To alleviate the taste of the beer, I'd added whiskey to the beer. It didn't help... was bitter, don't like bitter.

4 - 10,000 they go down real smooth.

Don't go down at all... I'm sure they're still bitter, don't like bitter.

*In honor of the grandmother who died before my birth, I did learn to drink, not so much at a time, her favorite soft drink... how much Moxie do you have?

Then I must avoid alcohol at all costs when I turn 18. [smiley=beer.gif] .
But I seriously cannot stand it :-/.

We do something similar here, we float down rivers on tubes with floating coolers full of beer.  Best part about it (besides the beer of course) is if you gotta pee, well, you know

Stupid is as stupid does though....according to this article there have been zero (0) injuries or fatalities in the entire history of this event. The laws

With the absence of common sense.....we have legislation

Looks like someone over here has finally seen the light. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-14634289

I live in hope.

Yay!!!!....more laws/regulations to protect people from themselves........maybe they could just assign someone to hold our hands everywhere we go

has anyone watched Idiocracy.....I see it happening every day
