Um, could we please try this? I would have so much fun floating around.

When I saw this story, I was for it! A Maryland bar in Ocean City has a unique idea to enforce social distancing by keeping patrons in inner tubes. Yes, inner tubes.

A bar called Fish Tales showed off its invention on social media with giant inner tubes mounted onto a wheeled cart, almost like an adult version of a baby walker. Once inside, the customer can't possibly come within six feet of another inner tube-wearing patron.

Like a lot of areas, Ocean City opened up its hotels and restaurants last week, preparing for a busy Memorial Day weekend. If we had this in North Carolina, I would so be doing it. It's funny yes, but pretty effective. Would you be willing to wear an inner tube to go out drinking? I would!
