I literally had to just walk away for a few minutes just to not laugh in his face and stay professional. So yes. They exist. And it seems I'm a magnet for these geniuses latey...

That is absolutely hilarious! I would not have been able to contain myself!

Well, to be fair, there is a Pembina float that is almost circular. I'm guessing people hear this, Google Pembina float and go to the graveyard launch. Google Earth could help these people in such a scenario.

if you look at the map, the only thing close to a circle is the one made by the vehicle trip back to start point

Straight down 82 is a pretty good circle. I don't mind pointing it out, place has been a shat show since '11 at least.

I don't get it? I thought if you float down the river for long enough you always end up where you started. Maybe they just need to float down a bit farther?

Yes there is an amazing amount of stupid people in this world. One of my favourite past times is messing with these people to see how long it takes them to realize I am screwing with them. Sadly this can be a long game with some people

The trouble is with City folks.

I had two of my Son's friends out last weekend. Never had touched a gun, never had been in a boat, never had been on a quad, ....

And you expect them to know that rivers flow in one direction?

Yep, same river, tuber coming down, I'm on the edge with my horse.
Tuber: Can your horse swim?
Me: Yes if he had to.
Tuber: Will he have to swim across here?
Me: No the water only comes up to his belly. You can touch the bottom here to.
Tuber: No way, it's over my head.
So I crossed to show him.
Tuber: Yeah but the horse is taller them me.
He was from the big city.
