Flugtag is a marketing event from
RedBull. Basically, they get people to submit drawings for a contraption that they will "fly" off of a ramp, into water. Each flying device has a theme... and before the individuals launch it, they do a silly dance to themed music. So in reality, crazy people dressed up in costumes, and jump into Lake Michigan...because NOBODY got their invention to fly..... It was a lot of fun though, very entertaining, and because my hotel was a sponsor and we had exclusive access, we got to hang out at Castaways, eating lots of great food and drinking red bull till we were so full and so hyped up on
caffeine that we had to leave. Final count of everyone who came out to watch this event?...75,000 people!
We also got to meet an Olympic medalist while we were there...she let me wear it!
We ended our afternoon with a walk by Lake Michigan. Summers in Chicago are
definitely the BEST!
