Many south Texans flock to New Braunfels (just north of San Antonio) every summer to go tubing on the Guadalupe & Comal Rivers.

While most people have demonstrated responsible behavior on the river & still have a good time, a few others had to take things a bit far & ruin it for the rest of us. :angry:

Now we all have new regulations to comply with when it's time to go tubing. :vmad:

I went tubing on the Comal River with my brother and sister-in-law and some of her family a couple years ago. Such a shame that a few dumb frat boys have to ruin it for everyone. :angry:

I agree.

I love to float down the river with a few friends & plenty of cold beer within reach just as much as anyone else, but I don't believe in acting inconsiderate like some tend to do after a few too many.

What also seems to be a problem on most tubing trips any more is people smoking dope out there. People can smell that stuff from a good distance away & unfortunately the sidestream smoke from it can show up on a drug test even several days later- something we don't need in this line of work.
