"Participants tell of frequent hallucinations in the lower river (because boats take up to one hundred hours to finish, and many racers do not stop to sleep, delusions are often unavoidable). Other challenges include aggressive alligator gar, alligators, sharks (while crossing the bay), poisonous water moccasin snakes, fire ants, and mosquitos. Participants' boats are frequently damaged along the upper river...."

I have heard it said that it doesn't have to be fun to be fun.
