For some reason when I saw the thread title and before I clicked on the thread I thought it was going to be about a hot dog eating contest

Ah, hot dogs, it is perhaps the greatest american sport. My cousin Hu Hee has taken me along many times. At first I was puzzled. Where to sit? Am I allowed to play, or only watch? How are the points awarded? And of course, why is this not in the Olympics? Then the condiments, this is a very technical part of the game and hard for foreigners to understand, believe me. But today I am almost the expert. Here is a great catch I made recently. My cousin tells me it was worth many points:

(The people you see in the background are some local entertainers, I do not fully understand them yet, but I see them at every hot dog game. Hu Hee says he thinks they are part of a government work program for people with addiction problems, but I do not know if this is correct)

The 4x400 is OURS!!! USA USA USA!!!

By the way, every high school track athlete in the US should watch this video for one reason above all others: To see how to properly run a break! My god that was a thing of beauty the 2nd leg ran! From out in lane 8 and she didn't hit lane 1 until she was starting to lean into the curve. Perfect! Shortest distance between two points is a straight line. I cringe a little bit every time I see a kid cut in from some outer lane to lane 1 by 15 meters after the break line.
