DETAILS & COST TO TOSS

• Tossing of the mullet is 10AM- 4PM Friday through Sunday.

• To toss a mullet, you will go to the sign-up table at the Yellow Tent located on the beach behind the Flora-Bama.

• Participants will toss one whole mullet (approximately 1 lb.) across the FL/AL state line.

• NO gloves or sand allowed on mullet - mullet will be picked up out of the water bucket. After you throw, you will retrieve your mullet and toss it back into the bucket.

• Mullet will be thrown from a 10' circle down a designated alley. No stepping out of circle during your throw and you must follow through or you will be disqualified. Throwing your mullet out of bounds is an automatic disqualification.

• COST TO TOSS: There is a $15 fee for those who wish to toss a mullet and this will be collected at the toss ring on the beach (no charge for entering the Flora-Bama; only to toss). Participants will also receive a commemorative 2020 Interstate Mullet Toss t-shirt (for 2X sized shirts cost is $17 and for 3X sized shirts cost is $18).

A portion of proceeds raised for tossing mullet will go to benefit the Community Drug & Alcohol Council, Inc., local Boys & Girls Clubs, and youth groups on both sides of the line!
