Apparently I need to explain some things about Springport's 8-80 days for some people.
Barry asked: "sounds great, what exactly is 8-80 days?"
8-80 days is the local summer "festival." It is called 8-80 days because there are things for everyone from 8 to 80. They have pedal tractor pulls, frog jumping contest, Pet shows, cow plop contest, tractor pull, horse pull, belt sander races. The typical summer festival stuff.
Then Arthur said: "Cow plop contest? I have to see this one."
For the cow plop contest they make a grid on the ground in some kind of enclosed area, Springport uses the tennis court, people then purchase "a square," at the end of the day, they put the cow in the tennis court, and whoever purchased the square where the cow drops its "plop" or "pie" wins half the money.
Not the same as a cow pie tossing contest, where I have heard contestants throw dried cow pies.
Ok that makes sense.
ReplyDeleteI have heard of Cow bingo or Lottery never heard it called Cow Plop.
