Urban Idiotarods - or Idiot-a-rod - have been going on since 1994 in San Francisco. These urban shopping cart races are named after the Iditarod - the 1,000 mile long dog-sledding race in Alaska.
The Idiotarods are a funny tradition, in which five "idiots" are harassed to a grocery shopping cart/trolley and run through the streets of a city.
Sabotage is permitted and encouraged and a main objective. People trip each other, throw items and topple obstacles. The event is quite amusing.
The first Idiotarod took place in San Francisco in 1994, but today you can take part in an Idiotarod in Ann Arbor, Asheville, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, Iowa City, New York City, Phoenix, Portland, Salt Lake City, Seattle, St. Louis, Toronto, Los Angeles, Vancouver and Washington, D.C., with new cities added every year.
The actual date in each city my vary. Date posted is for the New York City event.
