Teaching Your Kid How to Swim: UR DOIN IT RONG.

I was at Michigan State University tailgating for a football game and I spotted this interesting sight.

There I was, just walking up and down the banks of the Red Cedar, when I saw a stroller resting in the cold river.  No one was around, so I assumed this was merely a prank: an empty stroller was grabbed and hurled in to the river.

Judging by the pumpkins and other debris dashed upon the rocks, it appeared that hurling items in to the Red Cedar was just what you did.

All’s fair when it comes to tailgating, I s’pose.  AND this was not even the strangest thing I saw all day: not long after, an adult dressed up in a full Teletubbies costume walked past.

Ah, college.

It’s one of those four-wheel strollers that are impossible to fold or steer. I have also wanted to throw my stroller into a river. Many times. This isn’t a prank. It’s just good sense!
