Attention Big fat beer drinking guys. We have athletic events!

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I’ve got my Runer’s World today, and see they have the best section ever.

I give you The Big Man Run 4.8 Mile Race! This race is only open to men weighing 190 pounds or more. At three different saloons on the course you must chug a beer, and eat a hot dog before you can go on.

All race volunteers are apparently female and wear "Size Matters, Yeah Baby: tshirts.

Note the “Mythical Pachyderm” award.

Race is sponsored by Budweiser.

This is a race I can win!
Who’s with me!!!
Also of interest is the North American Wife Carrying Championship Obstacle Course if you want to do something with the Mrs.

There’s also the Beer Belly 2 mile walk/run

If you’re looking for something else to do with the wife, there’s the
2-mile Handcuffed Couples Run and Buffalo Police Chase 5-k.

Not to mention the world famous Hash House Harriers , a "drinkin club with a running problem.

Eer… bowling anyone? Heck, what other sport has a “beer frame” for heavens sake?

What about big fat beer drinking ladies? Can’t I play?

I second the bowling. It’s about time they recognized the “majority”, as it were…

The beer belly two is something even I could do. Might just have to check that one out. of course, driving 250 miles to walk two might be though of as odd…

Does it matter if the belly in question is not mostly beer? Myself, I lean towards pate and botyrized wines.
