Brew Moon

At the 78th edition of the moon run at the Buffalo Trace Trail in Mahomet last night, some buffaloes were too loaded with beer and burgers to actually get up and run the trail. A few managed to run, and those remaining discussed the possibility of having a sort of guard duty, as at the tomb of the unknown soldier, for the protection of Storm, the new buffalo statue (see below). Given some beer, I'm sure it would be no problem to have someone from the herd guard Storm during home football games, when public parking is allowed near the statue. Would-be violators of Storm's territory could expect a volley of empty beer cans launched their way.

He's a cool dude, Pokey. Right now he has his hooves covered in paper, which makes him look like he has bootees on, while another layer of concrete dries.
