As the story goes Emma Crawford was buried at the top of a mountain.  It rained and her remains were washed down the side of the mountain.  To commemorate this the town of Manitou Springs, CO holds an annual coffin race.  I love this idea.  Build a coffin.  Put it on wheels.  Race it.  I want to build an old toe pincher and race it.
