Never forget Team Danger Zone, '08. Photo by Steph Goralnick.
The Idiotarod is around the corner, and a little bit of snow isn't about to get in the way of drunk young creatives pushing their carts around town. The race starts this Saturday at 10 a.m., and "will be held regardless of rain or snow." A reminder from organizers: this is not a food fight, and any team caught throwing food will be asked to leave immediately.
This is the 8th year of the event, and this year around 40 teams have signed up to participate...however, it's unclear where all of this happens because organizers keep it hush-hush until the last minute (last year, the race went from Williamsburg to Queens; in 2009, it was Midtown to Greenpoint; and in 2008, it was Chinatown to Red Hook). If you catch any of them out there, send us your photos or tag them "Gothamist" on Flickr. We'll be updating Saturday as the event rolls on, so stay tuned...
