Despite years of planning, Alabama could not be recognized as an independant state at this years Summer Olympics. It was estimated however, they would bring home the gold in the Inverted Weight Chicken races. Thousands of disappointed fans showed up and were expected to riot on biblical scales, this was avoided when one peace loving individual suggested they drink all the beer first. Two weeks and not a single shower later, the group has dwindled down to a managable size for local law enforcement (who appear to have sobered up in time to actually maintain crowd control).
