A river blockage caused by a large number of novice boats parked in interesting orientations
During Michaelmas Term in Oxford or Cambridge, there are many rowing boats on the river occupied by
people who are new to the sport - novices. These
people are usually quite
bad at rowing and can be quite upsetting for other river users. Sometimes, their sheer idiocy can lead to pile-ups in the river, or a clusterbadger. Indeed, from above, it will actually look as messy as a group of badgers attempting a clusterfuck.
