Over the top is right. Gigantic waterfalls, plentiful tackle, and nearby fudge shops are always lovely, but their stuffed menageries are just creepy. Nice idea to combine the archery range and the taxidermy, so long as I don’t have to see the casualties and their guts (stuffing?) falling out on my way to the fishing section. P: The boycott/protest sounds like fun. I might consider joining you ONLY if I reserve the right to return to my favorite “Fish Naked-Show off your pole” t-shirt the next day. One mustn’t forget our fancy new Tackle This! Shoot That! in TC, right off I-10. G: Very interesting column. Over the top is right.
