Pee Tree: a solution to the porto-john line

I ran a 10K last spring in the Netherlands and thought this was a heck of a good idea. Has anyone ever seen this sort of thing at a race in the US? It was great since the women got the portos and the guys got the pee trees.

So guys, would you use this sort of thing at a race if it were available? Or are American men too shy?

That would by fine, but my guess is that before a race 90% of the guys aren’t looking to pee.

A gatorade bottle works for me, at least for #1.

hahahaha

only an American would take a picture of a bunch of guys pee-ing

LOL!!

I forgot to consider that the race started at 2 in the afternoon (why don’t we have start times like that here?) So most people had time to eat breakfast, even lunch and get the #2 business taken care of before they showed up.

Why the dividers?

Why the dividers?

Without the dividers it would look like this version. One word, splatter.

Maybe they need “shit shrubs”

I don’t know if they still have this at the start of the NYC Marathon, but back in the 80s they boasted about having the world’s longest urinal. The guys would be lined up doing their business at this thing.

Reminds me about a very hoity-toity (sp?) country club near here. The long time women members wer upset about the men urinating on the trees on the golf course. They went to the board saying, “…we are tired of watching the men urinate on the golf course!” The board stewed about this for some time. The next week signs appeared on the course saying, “Women shall refrain from watching the men urinate on the golf course.”

Sorry ladies, I thought it was funny.

They are just upset they cant pee standing up…or spell their name in the snow…

That would by fine, but my guess is that before a race 90% of the guys aren’t looking to pee.
Yes… they’d be running around looking for the other “solution to the porto-john line”: the Poop Chute

Yep, they still have it. Quite impressive the liquid volume that ~100 people can produce

Not bad, but it’s no bumperdumper.

You are welcome.
