Message: <blockquote data-quote="whiskey" data-source="post: 797571" data-attributes="member: 21523">An acquaintance of mine once ran the Boston Marathon as a bandit. He ran the best race of his life, 2 hours and 21 minutes. He was in his 40's, so if he had a number, he would have placed in that division. So, impulsively, at the finish line, he said his number had fallen off during the race, and he gave the name of a friend of his who was a 240 marathoner. Not a good move. His friend ran the race of his life and didn't get any credit for it because of the selfishness of the 221 guy. It was awful. It ruined their friendship. This happened in the late 1970's.   Not to change the subject but , "WAR EAGLE!!!" I cannot fathom a duck being a national champion. Sorry Pre.</blockquote>
