Re: I just had a horror thought

Thanks that made me laugh - just what I needed after some sad news this afternoon.
I love the 2nd idea.....that would be so funny

No worries, happy to help

Just had an additional thought...we could set up some "security guards" throughout the G, in order to ensure Seb's safe passage...back to Barkly St, and the throng of WB fans... we could hold the AFL to ransom, till we get a better stadium deal!

Oh, there's no end to my silliness...

Re: I just had a horror thought

GoDoggies, you raise a very good point here... some alternatives for you and Seb to ponder:

Seb flat out refuses to wear the 'evil' guernsey, finally agreeing to hold it in his hand. He storms up to the dais, drops the medallion on the floor, and steps on the foot of the waiting player, throwing the guernsey at him in disdain.

OR

Seb grabs the medallion (still refusing to wear the guernsey!) and takes off, medallion in hand, around the 'G' in a lap of defiance. He could even take off through the stands. No one could chase him, they'd all be killing themselves laughing.

There, a couple of options to consider. But under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should Seb don an "evil" guernsey. It'd just be wrong.

This reminds me of a funny thing I saw several years ago. I was at Footy park and the halftime mini-league had just finished and they had set off for their half a lap that they would always do. They would run from the middle of the ground to the boundary and turn left/right and run the half a lap along the boundary to the other side.

On this particular day one kid thought he would sprint out in front of his team mates and leave them all in his wake. He got to the boundary and went left and the rest of his team, who were trailing him, went right. The crowd started to laugh and cheer a bit and the kid thought it was because he was out in front and really turned on the afterburners and was smiling an ear to ear grin. When he got to about the goals, with the crowd now going wild, the kid proudly looked back over his shoulder to realise there was no one there and pulled up so fast that he fell over. The look on his face was priceless. It also made me feel a bit better as I was about the same age at the time (12ish) and had recently suffered my own embarrassing fall over the fence of Elizabeth oval (after helping with the banner at a Central Districts game) and had a huge section of the bumper crowd laughing at me.
