actually that thread was so funny to read... I knew for sure that it was a troll when he said that his 7 medals were better than 73 medals... :lol:

Road Scholar:4th 8-)
Bottle Rockets: 9th
Meteorology: 11th
Gliders: 21st

(other events: Green Gen, Crime Busters, Helicopters, Hovercraft, Air trajectory)

Umm...

291. Or is it 231? I'm not sure. We went from 227 to 288... Not sure... Anyway...

Walk into a competition wearing all your past medals and purposely clanking them around and apologizing really loudly and promising that it won't happen again. Rinse and repeat for till you are banned from the event. Enjoy!
