Serious question. I had a friend born and raised near Seattle who I invited to come on a float trip in southeast Missouri. Her mind was blown that this is a thing people do - drinking and making a ruckus while floating down a river.
In MO, this is just a thing that people do. At least in rural areas. I had no idea it was regional. So, how far across this region does the concept of float trips go?
I’ve always understood a float trip to be a large group of people going down rivers in rafts or canoes while consuming large amounts of alcohol. I haven’t been on one since 2010 and honestly it’s not my thing.
