People voluntarily were stuffed into a port-a-potty Saturday.
For the last 15 years, Gazpacho’s has hosted the competition in its parking lot, and it continues to draw in the crowds.
Small people are favored in this – the smaller, the better.
Monica Devera, who moved here from Flemington, New Jersey, experienced her first Snowdown this year. She didn’t plan on entering the competition, but her future team, the Doodie Booty Butt Stuffers, was a team in need and noticed her small stature. At 5-foot-2, the Doodie Booty Butt Stuffers asked her to sign up.
They gave her the hole. Luckily for her, the port-a-potty was clean.
“It wasn’t bad once I realized I knew the person in there with me,” she said.
Another person on the Butt Stuffers, Jenn Bartlett, was pleased with the team’s performance. In the end, they fit 20, the most of the day. She said her team has been participating for eight years, and she’s proud of that fact.
“We started off with just one in the hole, and we went to two in the hole,” Bartlett said.
It was the winning strategy.
