Nick McIlwain put together a list of his favorite massive sleds from the Cardboard Classic.  How did these incredible feats of engineering make it down the hill? The world may never know…

THEY DIIIIIIII-IID IT! THEY DID IT!

  • Harry Potter Hogwarts Express (2020)

    I love the entire Harry Potter universe and was so amazed that this crew was able to build a version of the Hogwarts Express, complete with Hagrid and Dobby and other characters from the Wizarding World. It looked so great, I joined them on the train down the slopes!

  • Slinky the Dog from Toy Story (2019)

    The Toy Story franchise has given us sleds like Buzz Lightyear and Woody and Mr. Potato Head, but for my money, Slinky Dog took the cake. I don’t know how long it took to crest the hill, but once it did, this roller coaster of a sled gained steam and made it all the way down to the bottom!

  • Kathy’s Perfect Box (2013)

    A longtime running joke on the show, “Kathy’s Perfect Box” inspired this sled, complete with a bikini clad 25-foot tall Kathy Romano. The cool part is that Kathy gets the joke and laughs along with it. Thank God, because otherwise, we’d probably get a stern note from HR…

  • Team Tiki E’s full Working Bar (2013)

    Massive sled? Check. 40 to 50 of your closest friends? Check. Fully functional bar ON the sled itself? Somehow, that gets a check too! Remarkably, this sled was also a working bar so technically, it might not have qualified as a truly CARDBOARD sled, but damn, was it impressive!

  • Pat’s Pub (2011)

    We’ve had a few double decker sleds over the years, and eventually, they actually became too tall to qualify. However, before those rules changed, we would let in sleds like this one which was JAMMED with a ton of listeners and this Philly version of a Pub Crawl made it up the hill and then yes, back down the hill too!
