Lots of stupid Traditions out there!

Like the guy who proclaimed being first in line at the Indy 500 every year in his beat-up pick-up!!!

It’s as futile as politics!

I always figured that they were trying to get away from all of the sonar. It must be horrible, not being able to escape the noise.

Life’s a beach
