The Idiotarod is sort of like the Iditarod, except the dogs are humans, the sleds are shopping carts and Alaska is New York City. And sometimes the humans are drunk.
The third annual Idiotarod is coming up this weekend! It will start in Brooklyn, run into Manhattan, and end approximately five miles later. Teams of five will race for a cash prize. And glory. Sweet, sweet glory.
Here's what you need to do to prepare:
- Get a team of 5 people
- Find a shopping cart (don't get caught)
- Decorate it. Like a stock car.
- Save up $5 per person as a fee.
- Dress in warm clothes, that preferably match your teammates.
Then you are ready! Check your dignity at the start line and get ready to run. Pre Register here to race this Saturday, January 28th.
Check out Flickr for pictures from last year, as well as people preparing their carts for the race!

i wonder how many people will get arrested.
I always thought the iditarod people were idiots. Have a bunch of dogs pull me across snow in a race. How frickin hard is that? It's like driving across the state with the A/C on. Pathetic event.
De-evo, obviously you know jack shit about the Iditarod.
This sounds hilarious, but I do have to wonder what will happen after the No-Pants Subway Ride fiasco.
what the....
it's gonna be like 52 degrees on saturday! think the unseasonably warm weather will take some fun out of this event :(
