funny events at meets

Unread postby patybobady » Wed Feb 16, 2005 11:26 pm

Well today I ran the pole vault. My first time as I am a new coach. Well there was a vaulter who had a name like plidelpis corkast. I do not even remember his name. But he said to call him 'P'. So there I am yelling "P in the hole!". Everyone laughed pretty hard...

Any hilarious things happen at meets in the vault that anyone remembers?
