BRK and Ratshag organize a Running of Da Bulls

Many of you might remember that a while back, we organized a Stormwind Stampede, where a bunch of us created a herd of Tauren over on Zangarmarsh, and then had a little footrace all the way to Stormwind. Our friend BigRedKitty is apparently putting something similar together this weekend -- he's calling it the Cinco de Mayo Running of da Bulls, and the final goal appears to be from Mulgore to Hammerfall (which means there's an Org to Undercity zepplin ride in there somewhere).The whole event kicks off this Saturday, May 3rd over on Cenarion Circle. BRK is organizing the thing along with Ratshag of Need More Rage (he's the one who created the route, and it'll be his friend you're hunting for in Hammerfall). He's got more on his blog, including that the race is a tribute to a friend of theirs who passed away, and all the Tauren will be saying "moo" in respect.
Sounds like a lot of fun. If you want to join them, meet up in Mulgore on Cenarion Circle at 4:00 server time (which works out to 7:00 Eastern). And make sure to take some screenshots. For the Herd!

I love community events like this. It's just fun to get a boat load of people together on one server and do something different. Similar some of the WcRadio events, gnomes on parade (or w/e it was called) and such.
speaking of that - hey schramm, convince some people over at WcRadio to organize some type of event like this. This kinda stuff is great. :)

Sincere condolences to your friend.
I'd be there, but I'm going to be on the beach that day partaking of drinks containing lots of rum and topped with an umbrella.

i love this. i don't even know a single person involved, but it's fun and creative and a great way to give an in-game tribute to someone.

Is it a pve server? cause it'd be great to have a naked human lowbie leading pack of bulls (and cows preumably) yelling something like the Bulls are coming, run for your lives! If it's a pvp server I forsee this ending like that video of the dudes ganking the funeral set to that scatman john song.

Cenarion Circle is an RP (PvE) server.
Therefore, this idea of yours is *GOLDEN.*

Sounds like a lot of fun, I'd love to participate but everytime I try to do one of these I lag way too much *my comp just can't handle it). Hopefully soon I'll have a new comp, then I can do these things.

Im sorry, but while cool, AIE has unfortunatly beat you to this "running of the bulls" twice actually

Pft, noone ever tried to say it was original, but it is in tribute to a guild member who recently died and who had loved cows, so it gets props for that.
I challenge you, however, to come up with a similar event that hasn't been done before, organise and execute it.

AIE's events:
Thunderdome a free for all rampage at Gurubashi arena
Fishin Club: epic fish shall be caught with legendary worms
Craft Fair: months of mats hoarding in the guild bank creates millions of trade skill point gains.
just a few of the more recent events
