Well now, is this not a classic case of turning a lemon into lemonade?
Saturday morning the Slide the City Panther Fest event was deemed a disaster.
And then, later on that disastrous day, the Slide in the City of Fort Worth set a world record in the Guinness Book of Records.
That is a screen cap of this momentous news, from the Star-Telegram, which you see here.
I am unable to read the article explaining how the slipping and sliding in Fort Worth set a world record, due to me not being willing to pay the Star-Telegram their requested reading fee.
Was the record due to a world record number of people sliding on a water slide in an allotted period of time?
Was the record due to a world record amount of money being raised by such an event?
Was the record due to a world record distance slid?
Was the record due to a world record number of people willing to slide on water which came, un-treated, from a polluted river?
Those are my four guesses as to what sort of world record could have been set yesterday in Fort Worth via a long slip and slide....
