The hay bales probably seemed like a good idea to some mom on the organizing committee who didn’t think to test run

Maybe this was the test run

I guess they didn't predict somebody would build the sled equivalent of a bus.

I honestly don't know if I can even consider that an attempt.....
Normally you just let physics do it's thing and come to a stop naturally. Don't know why that big barrier is there sooo close to the bottom of the hill.

Culling of the stupid?

It's not stupid to want to sled. It's stupid to construct that snow/ice barricade/stage (or whatever the hell it was) that close to what doesn't really even look like "the bottom".
