Jumping the Caesars’ fountains

Darn it, I knew I should have stayed here in Las Vegas until Friday instead of leaving Thursday afternoon. Some X Games dude is going to attempt to jump the fountains at Caesars Palace Thursday night. The feat was last attempted by Evel Knievel, who landed himself in a 30-day coma. Mike Metzger is going to try to two-up Evel by a) doing a back flip in mid-air and b) actually landing the jump.
