The Great Snail Race

johnmaloney · 05-08-2008, 09:48 PM

And it is on! The Great Snail Race is scheduled for Thursday May 22nd. It will feature 12 of the leading Nassarius snails in the sport today, vying for first dibs on a smelly dead fish in the 12 inch dash. The race will be taped and broadcast later that evening on YouTube and on our webpage. Stay tuned for more details, and how you can place your wager on the snail you think can take it all. You will want to subscribe to this forum!

(No actual betting, everyone will get a free try, and will win gift certificates if they get the winner right-stay tuned for odds and prizes)

You should be racing Stomie's, they are much faster.

johnmaloney · 05-09-2008, 12:05 PM

Don't have them. Would they go straight after a bait fish? We have to have something that will go in a straight line. If you wan to send some for the race I would be much obliged.
