As was reported yesterday, November 1 was the Running of the Bulls, sponsored and organized by Divided Loyalties. The event was a huge success, with twenty-five level one taurens making the trek from Red Cloud Mesa to Booty Bay.
There were several alliance characters that caused a lot of delays for the pvp flagged tauren, particularly a gnome warrior and dwarf priest, both of whom managed to wipe out almost the entire herd before being taken down by protectors.
I had a chance to talk to Charimaa, one of the organizers from Divided Loyalties, and she had this to say about starting the event:
"We decided that with the recent unstable server instances and with the expansion coming out and people trying hard to earn money we thought it'd be a fun way to promote our name, and to give a chance to anyone to earn some money and have a bit of fun."
Charimaa also went on to mention that other events might be coming in the future, though there are no definitive plans, as of yet.
When all was said and done, almost all of the original group made it to Booty Bay and everyone involved - whether watching, attacking, defending, or running - had a great time.
