The Rhode Island chapter of the National MS Society held an interesting fundraising event over the weekend. 25 teams from around the state competed to see who could pull a FedEx cargo plane the fastest. The winning team, Team Expert Landscaping, pulled the 146,000 pound jet over the required distance in just 5.79 seconds.

Despite the rain, the event had a record turnout and raised over $40,000 to benefit the MS Society.
