Ah, yes, here are 50,000 rubber ducks cascading into the Chicago River

The Chicago River ran yellow on Thursday. Gross, we don't mean like that.
Every year, Special Olympics Illi**is (https://www.soill.org/) hosts the Windy City Rubber Ducky Derby, a delightful race that begins with over 50,000 rubber ducks being poured from a truck into the river. From there, the stakes are high: participants select a duck to "adopt" in the hopes it'll be first to "sail" (float) across the finish line.
