Why do I always miss the cool stuff? Why? WHY?! Get a load of some of these FAQs....
*Can we get drunk?*It makes the pain go away.
*Are there rules?*
Yes, quite a few of them. For starters, four people must be attached to and running in front of the cart at all times. There will be referees along the route to disqualify cheaters. We'll release a more detailed list of rules a week before the event.
*Does my team need its own shopping cart?*
Yes.
*Where do we get a cart?*
Be resourceful.
*Are you suggesting we steal it?*
We didn't say that.
