Ryan Sommers has a rather remarkable story to tell.
Back in 1994, when he was a student at C.P. Allen High School, he was involved in an economics project in which groups of students started businesses.
Ryan's group decided on running a sort of gambling scenario that involved bringing a cow to the school's sports field, and having people wager bets on where it would first poop.
As you will hear in this episode, the entire event went horribly wrong, and resulted in a cow chase involving RCMP, animal control officers, and large groups of excited school kids.
