So the other poker runs could have done something more "safer?"
Did the others have different priorities than Four Horsemen have?

 

[Ratickle]

Good question.

Maybe all of the poker runs and fun runs should get together and standardize a set of rules that would keep someone from participating in any events for a year if they break those rules?

Some are more "preventable" than others. An experienced driver who is sober and gets into some snotty water and things go bad at high speed quickly is one thing.

Other "accidents" can be seen coming before they even occur from the far seats at Cheeseburger in Paradise.

Exactly.

And I don't know that any event organizer can stop stupidity outside of the actual event itself.
