Team Fat Bastard Bailed

Jonny,
I realize that this is the same stale old story that has been around since the first 24 hr. race was conceived. The loudest, and in this case fattest, most enthusiastic friend who said he would “train hard all year,” bails on the team days before the race. Too late to get a replacement, the team goes on without him, not missing his painfully slow laps or insatiable appetite for food and beer…….just his $109 in entry fees.

As a final ” F U ” to Fat Bastard (yes, that is really his nickname), our collective hope was that we have enough DC gear in the picture to earn a spot on your site…….

Oh, he earned it.

You boys make me proud.

About big jonny

The man, the legend. The guy who started it all back in the Year of Our Lord Beer, 2000, with a couple of pages worth of idiotic ranting hardcoded on some random porn site that would host anything you uploaded, a book called HTML for Dummies (which was completely appropriate), a bad attitude (which hasn’t much changed), and a Dell desktop running Win95 with 64 mgs of ram and a six gig hard drive. Those were the days. Then he went to law school. Go figure. Flagstaff, Arizona, USA
