There is a Whiskey Dick Triathalon every year that ends here in Eburg. I believe they have to swim across the columbia at Vantage, bike up the Vantage highway, and then run in to town. No way in hell I'd ever do it, but I REALLY want a shirt!! http://www.whiskydick.org/

Mixed company considered I can think of at least three other events that would make a much more interesting 'Whiskey Dick Triathlon'....

Hmmm.. Sign up is on 19th Street... warm up and such... walk through campus, stop off at Moore Hall and/or Sue Lumbard to refuel... Then down to the Tav briefly before continuing on to make the Oak Rail, Mint, Horseshoe, and Palace loop.... Drunk bus back to location A for the second leg of the triathalon.... That is... if you can still walk on your two legs. You really need to be a seasoned Ezburg playa to attempt such a race.

Although I got this image from the web I've actually been there... ...let's just say it didn't live up to its name...

Don't tell me CWUgirl, that you have not hunted the chukar in Whiskey Dick.
Or do you just chase the "cockbirds"?

Idaho is full of that type of stuff. Just read that they re-named a mountain at a eastern Idaho ski resort because people did not like the name "Marys nipple" How would you like to live in a town named Athol??
