Originally posted by trackstarOriginally posted by TrackDaddyThe only negatives were a rash of false starts and the disqualification of the Lancaster Lady Tigers 4x4 team. The crowd began to chant 'let them run' in unison after their blocks were removed.
I even had a fist pump going.ops:

Therein lies the problem.
I'm only kidding.
Not sure why you think most people couldn't see the start from their seats.
I believe the chant was in response to knowledgable track fans realizing that a false start in the 4x400 relay especially before the athletes are even set is inconsequential to the race. Rules are rules but there was no advantage to be gained and it wouldn't have been the first false start of the day to be 'charged to the house' and the runners allowed to run, if indeed they had.The fool has said...there is no God.

I was there...Along with the rest of Trackshark.
Pooda was asking me if I'd heard from you.
Why didn't you tell anybody you were going?
...And we were the ones who started the "Let Them Run" chant.
Near the finishline. Top level. About the 20yd line.
That was us.

Originally posted by gmThe starter was a she, and I was happy to see her firmly overrule the mob, most of whom couldn't even see the start from their seats.
My question remains: Is it a false start if the starter hasn't even said "set" yet?"Run fast and keep turning left."

I did tell Destiny, DaHurdler, spantha and a few others. I mentioned it on Facebook so I thought everyone knew.
We sat in section 5 row 3 near the finish line on Saturday. Friday we sat in section 5 row 15 I believe. The finish line is in section 4 close to section 5.
I hate I miseed you guys but it wasnt because I wasnt looking around. My head was on a swivel...lol
I should've known TS started the chant...lol
I was sitting a few seats away from Coach Humphrey and she was highly ticked.The fool has said...there is no God. Psa 14
