It may be on this site somewhere but couldnt find it. Anyone have any funny signs they have seen during a race.
a few that i have seen to start us:
I’m done, whats taking you so long- early in the race
Free Beer- Stop Here
All downhill from here (right before a big hill)
It seemed like a good idea at the time…
My favorite has to be “I don’t do Triathlons, I do Triathletes”.
I saw a couple of good ones at the Houston Marathon:
This has come up here before and there’s some good ones in that thread so it’s worth searching for.
But my favorites (all held by my fiancé at races)
Save a Bike, Ride a Triathlete.
Size Does Matter, Use the Big Ring
And my favorite…
Wow Nick!, You’re an Ironman! Will You Marry Me?
(we were already engaged but it still cracked me up!)
At the San Fran Marathon - ‘If it was easy - I would be out there running’
and on a T shirt from an another runner - That is not sweat- that’s your fat cells crying… my favorite.
my two favorites that I’ve seen:
“Watching you makes me want to poop.”
“This is a horrible parade!”
.
A shirt that said …“Who fartleked?”
My humor is that of a 10 year old.
At a 10-miler in Louisville: “Naked Cheerleaders in 1 Mile!”
.
I always liked the sign:
“Insert motivational phrase here”
.
Not a sign but was said to me by my girlfriend (now my wife) at the first race she attended:
“Hurry up and finish, I want to go to breakfast!”
.
There was a guy sitting in the edge of his yard in a lawn chair with a big sign that read : Course Liar. As I passed, he said " That was the last big hill." I heard him tell the guy behind me that there was an aid station around the next corner.
For the next few minutes, I wondered what all he had said as folks passed.
Both from my wife:
“Don’t suck”
“It’s not call Easyman”
.
Silverman had a few out on the course on the last part of the bike and on the run. I don’t remember most of them, they were kinda taunting funny and were credited to Frank.
The one I really remember was coming in on the bike there was one that said… “If you call me cell…and I don’t answer” Which made you go what the hell is that…then about a mile later there was another one “That means I’m in the massage tent”…
Some of my favorites.
-Only 130.6 left ( obviously sign is 10 miles in)
4 miles in to the Bolder Boulder a couple years ago, a hippie with a sign:
“Make 'em bounce”
Got me gigglin’…
On the bike “Smile if you peed in your wetsuit”
On the run “Smile if you peed on your bike”
“There is a hole in your shorts” (You call that thing a "c*ck!!!)
.
This once made me laugh. The sign was held by a very attractive woman.
“Things to do today…
Swim 2.4 miles
Bike 112 miles
Run 26.2 miles
Me”
This thread had a few good ones http://forum.slowtwitch.com/gforum.cgi?post=3498246;
.
A male spectator was wearing a shirt that read “My wife is a T.I.L.F” (that is “Triathlete I’d Like to F*#@”)
