The Royal St. John's Regatta is held on the first Wednesday of every August, and it's a holiday for most workplaces in the city. However, if the weather isn't nice, and the races are postponed, you have to go to work. For those who drink on the Tuesday night before, we call it Regatta Roulette. This year, those who played, lost. This one is for them.
