<div id="ygrps-yiv-213104477">& here at last <br/>
delivering after 40 days & 40 nights on message 14087<br/>
http://www.garringer.net/foam/archives/images/Flora-Bamma.gif<br/>
is a pic of the alleyway <br/>
down the middle of which the alfl state line actually runs <br/>
alongside the florabama bar <br/>
from the street to the mullet tossing beach<br/>
& ultimately on out to sea & the alflus tripoint some 3nm beyond<br/>
yet perhaps visible on a clear day <br/>
thru the cracks in this picket gateway<br/>

&gt; &gt; Here&#39;s an amusing border event... the Flora-Bama bar on the <br/>
&gt; alfl <br/>
&gt; &gt; border sponsors an annual &quot;mullet toss,&quot; where people toss a <br/>
&gt; fish <br/>
&gt; &gt; from one state to the other.<br/>

&gt; &gt; <br/>
&gt; &gt; Note the photo of the bar, with what looks like a line running <br/>
&gt; &gt; through the facade denoting the state line.... can anybody <br/>
&gt; confirm <br/>
&gt; &gt; this?<br/>

&gt; the florabama bar is entirely in florida but it does abut the alfl line<br/>
&gt; so the delineation suggested on its marquee is slightly bogus<br/>
&gt; as the pic originally attached to message 7562 also made clear <br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; i may be able to find & scan & post this pic again <br/>
&gt; but in the meantime you could just trust me on it too<br/>
&gt; as there were many details to support my conclusion <br/>
&gt; including the admission of the bartender<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; the practically adjacent highrise motel is entirely in alabama<br/>
&gt; & is separated from the bar by a narrow alleyway thru which the <br/>
&gt; state line runs from the road these buildings face to the beach <br/>
&gt; behind them where the mullet toss is held<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; message 10864 describes the toss too but it needed to be <br/>
&gt; corrected by message 13320 as well as brought to life by 14086 </span></blockquote></div>
