HTML

<h1>This runs differently than the ticker for some reason. It's highly annoying in my personal opinion.</h1>
<div id="ticker">    
    <div class="event">test1</div>
    <div class="event">Herp Derp Derp</div>
    <div class="event">test3</div>
    <div class="event">This is test number 4</div>
</div>

CSS

.event{float: left;}
/* Add width and it will run, sorta fine
.event{width:100px;}
*/
