Interstate Mullet Toss

One of the Flora-Bama’s most anticipated events, the Interstate Mullet Toss is part of the beach’s greatest party where participants throw a dead mullet over state lines to compete for a variety of awards. However, don’t be fooled. Although many competitors and spectators might be sporting a mullet, the mullet being tossed across state lines is a common saltwater fish. All sport is for a good cause, too, with each fish tossed into Alabama raising money for local youth charities.
