Again, a little Fairport History here, imagine that. Cow Tipping in Fairport had to do with literally knocking over cows in their sleep. You see there is a common belief on yellow school buses that cows sleep standing up, so you can sneak up on them and with a big shove, you can knock them off balan...

Written on Friday 9/21/18 1:55am   The Move! Is it over yet? Almost. It won't be over until we are serving 100% gluten reduced beer in Fairport.
