It's funnier when you put your finger in your cheek and make that cork
popping sound, when his melon hits the pavement.

The suspicion, 'though adamantly refuted by the representatives of the
bank and the marathon, is that he slipped on the rain-dampened
advertising decal that laid across just in front of the finish line.
It was a seriously dangerous incident, one that should not be taken so
light-heartedly. It is quite repulsive how quickly people pounce on
frightening situations in a marathon, simply to provoke a cheap laugh.

I guess thats what happens when a bunch of non-runners are in charge of
a race like that. I have slipped (and luckly not hit my head) like he
did, on the ice.
