KEY WEST - APRIL 29: (NO SALES. NO ARCHIVES) In this photo provided by the Florida Keys News Bureau, participants in the Conch Republic Red Ribbon Bed Race push their entries down Duval Street April 29, 2007 in Key West, Florida. The race was one of the highlights of the 10-day Conch Republic Independence Celebration that ends Sunday, April 30. The Conch Republic was formed in 1982 when Key West "seceded" from the United States to protest the U.S. Border Patrol's establishment of a checkpoint at the top of the Florida Keys Overseas Highway.
