Skiing with bison

A group of the AI Lab students went on a ski trip. On their way home they spotted some bison along the road. It was such a great experience that several ski trips were organized that winter for spotting bison on the slopes. The trips were usually called "bison trips".

Some people say the original trip never happened, and this was all made up by a bunch of grad students. But you can still find people around the lab who claim to have a friend whose friend was on the original trip. Or they heard about it from a friend who talked to the original group. I guess we will never discover the truth about how this tradition started. But this shouldn't stop us from dressing in silly costumes and going skiing this winter!
