Dunking the Duck Derby
- posted by Jim Leitzel @ 9:30 PM

In Rochester, Minnesota, Junior Achievement has been holding a Duck Derby to raise money for the last 15 years. (In a Duck Derby, plastic numbered ducks are released in a body of water. People buy tickets "betting" on a duck, and if their duck is the first to make it to the finish line, they win a prize.) The state gambling authorities smelled a fish, and shut down the Derby this year -- but JA hopes to re-organize their Derby -- er, put their ducks in a row -- in a way that will satisfy state regulations next year.
