Boone Hall Oyster Festival mud bath

03 Feb 2010 by Sean in Charleston Events

I wish I’d stayed longer and took in the entertainment, but this is a little video I took of someone getting stuck in the mud pit by the parking lot at the Oyster Festival last weekend.

I ended up driving my friends car through the mud pit, which was the ONLY way out for thousands of cars.  We left early.  I wish I could’ve seen it an hour or two later.

Because so many cars were getting stuck, you had to wait for the car or truck in front of you to go through before you could start.

The guy in front of us in a big red truck took off just as some guy in another truck comes flying around the whole line.  The red truck didn’t see the other truck and they came less that a foot from crashing before he swerved away at the last minute.

And here I forgot to get my camera back out.  Ah, well.
