Mary,

Like so many of these types of events, the wilder the costume, the more likely one is to be picked up by the press. For the most part, though, it was tshirt and shorts. The most dangerous part of the whole thing was the ramp leading to the water. The easiest way to get into 32 degree water is a flying leap. While running for the water, a few folks slipped on the ramp and went down hard on icy concrete. Not much harm done, though, except minor embarrassment. The woman with the giant breasts costume would have been well padded had she slipped.
