Worst Fundraising Idea Ever? The Frozen Gelatin Slide

Gosh darn, by golly, we missed it: the 23rd annual Long Island Gelatin Slide. Here’s the sales pitch:

Imagine sliding into 1,500 gallons of frozen gelatin and then getting hosed off by the fire department!

Imagine.

The event benefitted the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Sounds like participating could give you leukemia and lymphoma.

I wonder how successful this event would be if the majority of people knew where gelatin comes from.
