The Flora-Bama is a bar right on the Florida/Alabama line.
Each Spring a crowd gathers at the Flora-Bama for the annual interstate mullet toss.
A mullet is a kind of fish. You pay $15 to stand in Alabama and see how far you can chuck a slippery dead mullet into Florida. Winners get mullet trophies and Flora-Bama gift certificates. The entry fees go to charity. The mullet are fed to the birds.
For those of you looking down your noses, I don’t see that this is much dumber than any other festival people use as an excuse to drink.
Har! All I could think of was the *other* mullet:

Is that your high school yearbook picture?
Ouch!
Why is everyone so down on Mullets? Bring back the eighties! Flock of Seaguls… and Spandex! Though … it would not be right if I were sporting anything of these gashion items… lets leave that for the younguns.
