OCEAN CITY – Ocean City greets the fall season with a unique event. Contestants of all ages are invited to demonstrate their most dramatic and original plops in slow motion. Winners are declared the King and Queen of Plop or Miss Fall Gal, Mr. Fall Guy.
Event is set for 11 a.m., Sept. 4 at the 9th Street Beach adjacent to the Music Pier. Registration is at 10:30 a.m. Entry is free.
Celebrity Ploppers drop by to demonstrate techniques at the opening of the competition. They are not eligible for prizes. They include Nancy Fox and the Fox Vocal Arts Ploppers, Suzanne Muldowney, AKA Shelly the Mermaid, plopping to exotic music, Doug Jewell of Air Circus and his Yo Yo Ploppers, the Ocean City Fish doing a soggy plop and the Baseball Plopper, sinking to the sand in despair after he strikes out.
Music will be provided by the World’s Only Wind Chimes Band who has tinkled its way to the top of the Wind Chimes Charts with the acclaimed hit “Brother Can You Spare a Chime?” Free copies available on request.
Contest winners will receive trophies, runners up will be awarded ribbons. Small replicas of Martin Z. Mollusk, Ocean City’s relatively famous Hermit Crab, will be given to all who will take them while supplies last. Preferred seating is provided free in the loggia area of the Music Pier over looking the event.
