Duluth is a one-mermaid town

Well, there’s this. A young woman in Duluth has always wanted to be a mermaid. One $3,000 synthetic tail later, SHE IS ONE. And she’s finding a way to pay for that tail as a guest mermaid in hotel pools and special events. WDIO has video.

The legend of mermaids comes from ancient sailing tradition. Some believe they were just porpoises or manatees, whose calls were mistaken for human before the sailors saw only the tail slip beneath the ocean. They are often associated with tragedy, but I’m sure this one will turn out well.
