Kidding, kidding. Sorry. Been a day.

varies WILDLY year to year. It's the sort of event that lets local politicians and business people grease each other up in public-but-private events and then walk out hoping not to be stopped on the street.

Worst-case it's an excuse to get drunk in a tent with people you sort of recognize.

Back in the day you'd be in for human dogsled races. That...is not a thing I would've believed existed had I not seen them with my own eyes.
