The Great 2011 Turd Toss







This is our 2011 Turd Toss, one of the highlights of our winter in the park. I'm sure I've mentioned many times in these blogs that one of my finer goals in life is to earn the Turd Queen crown. It didn't happen this year either.
I'm just going to give you a few of the Turd Toss rules and then post as many pictures as I can.
Two well used but hopefully cleaned old toilets are placed facing each other in the middle of the road about 20-30" apart. Some want them further apart but I whined loudly and got them moved to the 20' mark.
Four ladies are called up to stand behind them, two on each end. Each lady is given one toss of the turd (nylon wrapped squished speghetti) and, if they make it into the toilet, they are elevated to the Great Turd Toss Off.
Then four men have their turn. This done until all contestants have had one toss of the turd.
If more than one lady or one man manages to get the turd in the toilet, we have the Great Turd Toss Off and the winner is the new King or Queen of the Turds.
The person who started this grand tradition is Mark and he's referred to as our Head Turd. He tells us who is up next to toss the turd.
After crowning the Turd King and Queen, we have a lovely lunch of goodies plus the special Kitty Litter cake. This year we even had music and dancing. Before we know it we'll be featured in the society pages!!
Now, I'll just post more pictures of this fun event.
