These friends of ours from Austin, TX had just lost the J24 North American Championship in the final racee, and were on their way back from Mexico.  A storm hit and the roads got crappy.  As the trailer crested a hill it got out of control, and rolled into the ditch about 3 times.  There was about 1 foot of dirt in the bottom when it was over, and the keel was launched about 100 yards.  To make things worse, when they finally got back to the border, they weren't allowed back into America immediatley since they didn't have everything they entered Mexico with.    So next time you're in Mexico and see a taco stand shaped like a J24 called "Mr. Happy's", buy something... and make sure to take a picture.
