I couldn't resist adding this article. Only in Wisconsin could you run for beer and raise money. Here is the story. Have I mentioned yet that I miss home?
*As a note to the anonymous comment- If you have been a victim of drunk driving my heart goes out to you and all members involved. However... This article is talking about a charity event. This run was not intended as a free for all drinking fest. If you have some idea of a naked mile college run with lots of beer you are wrong. A beer run in Wisconsin is like a wine tasting on the West Coast. We may not be as sophisticated, but we are who we are and we drink what we drink.
And although I am very much against drunk driving, that is not my fight. My fight is here in D.C. dealing with injuries that were sustained by a roadside bomb. If you have further feelings on this matter, please feel free to tell the world. Just please take the crusade away from my blog.

LOL Great story!! Only in Wisconsin! :o)
Must not be a Mothers Against Drunk driving Organization in that state.
anonymous, there is a MADD chapter here, but I don't see anywhere in the article where it says it was driving race, it was a run.
Sounds like an unusual event, but it's nice that they rose $350,000 for charity by drinking and running.
I think you handled anonymous very well. He/she/it obviously can't read because Tracy is right, it's a run - not driving. Some people.
