There seems to be a growing number of for-profit street events that travel from city to city. The latest one is Slide The City. The organizers put up a four-block long water slide down Market Street and sold tickets for a fair amount of money. A tube or inflatable slide was required. It you bought a three-slide ticket they threw one into the deal.
Downtown St. Louis doesn't have much slope so no one got up a lot of speed. Still, people seemed to be having fun. Lots more where these pictures came from.
une superbe activitée en cette periode

ReplyDeleteIt does seem to have brought out the crowds!
ReplyDeleteThey should have started it at the top of a highrise. That would have added a bit of drama at the conclusion. They could have ended in the Big Muddy. No, they didn't ask for my suggestions.
