Even if the majority of athletes would be against it, WTC would NEVER EVER disallow this nonsense.
They gonna insist on having this spectacle. By now I already know their argument:
It has become tradition, it is part of Ironman.
And you know why?
Not because they feel with the poor suckers who desire to carry their homestead across the line, but because they can make additional money off it!
The photographer sells more pictures, more DVDs, WTC can ask for a higher cut for the licensing of photography.
Everybody wins!?
It is called capitalism, get over it already!
