Outhouse Races

The Holy Roller team (on the right) were totally trashed!

G and I packed up 3 and 4 today and went to the outhouse races in Twain Harte!  It is actually officially called a "Crapper Derby".


It was one of those situations where you say to yourself...."this is AWESOME and why am I not racing a crapper?!"

Unfortunately, an elderly man was hit by a run away crapper!  But the race was only delayed about 15 minutes while the paramedics attended to him and his wife whisked him off to the hospital.  You can imagine the jokes:  "Boy that poor guy has had a shitty day", "He sure had the crap knocked out of him", "You can't make this shit up", etc!

These two were bored silly
The whole event had me planning a TNDC Crapper for the Derby!  Here are the jobs:

  • Kyle will use his bicycle engineering skills and access to light weight material to build the base
  • Jim will use his building skills to build a Cureton Crapper on wheels
  • Amanda will paint and/or design the Crapper
  • Drew and Grace - with their long legs - will push the Crapper 
  • Bug - with her tiny build - will drive the Crapper
  • Marty will manage all the marketing of the Crapper
  • Tina will make grilled cheese
  • Cindy will make "not koolaid" so the ladies can be trashed like the Holy Rollers
  • The Screwtops will stand around jinxing the whole event (less Renee who will be photographing everything)
  • Mr C will dye his mustache pink and stand around the competition looking like a creeper
Who is in?   I think we can win this event!
