"Let's check in on Broomfoal!" Donahoe shouted as the screen cut to a small post office south of the Everfree Forest, whose champagne-drenched mailponies were once again unfurling their giant "You Asked, We Delivered!" banner. "You're the best, Broomfoal. And now let's kick it to Omareha! Nice! Good stuff from the Applebuck State. And now Trottingham! And Fillydelphia! And Stalliongrad! Ladies and gentlemen, the mail carriers of Buffalo!"
"Looking good, Buffalo," Donahoof added. "Love the choreography!"
Other highlights from the revelry included a quarter-mile-long postal worker conga line in Palomino, mailponies in Shetland tossing their coworkers into the air with a giant blanket, and federal workers from the five post offices in Tampa Neigh gathering in Fort Marecy Park for a fireworks display, carnival games, and performances of numerous mail-related songs and skits.
Similar nationwide celebrations reportedly occurred the previous night, last Saturday, Friday, and every day that mail has been delivered since Benjamule Franklin established the government agency in 775 AC (Anno Celestia).
"Twenty million letters, 8 million birthday cards, 100 million Apple family seed catalogues, and 5 million different types of forms were delivered from one side of the country to the other, a majority of them for just 2 bits," former Wonderbolt and aviation legend Kolt Malone said in a message to the nation's mailponies taped earlier in the day. "It's a modern miracle, and you're responsible for it. So raise a glass and take a drink, because you deserve it."
Nobody was injured during any of the nationwide festivities—many of which devolved into late-night dance parties—and all postal workers interviewed said they had the time of their lives. |
