12. No, that was Katharine Harris. She did the same thing to Gore in 2000.

2. It was bizarre
And apparently he did something similar at an auto race in Great Britain - ran out on the track while cars were buzzing along at a cool 200 mph! What I found weird is he evidently has the money to travel all over the world disrupting sporting events.

4. Awful
I felt so sorry for the runner, must have been a terrifying experience to have a nut come out of nowhere and grab you.:-( I could hardly believe it when I saw it happening. :wtf:

Seriously, this guy is an idiot and needs to go away for a long time.

10. Actually, it was extremely well executed
I mean, if someone had proposed this scenario last night, wouldn't it have been a favorite that a young world class athlete could easily dodge a pudgy 56 year old wacko? I know he's already run 22 miles and is locked in to a pace and routine, but I guarantee many others in the field could have easily slowed and sidestepped the guy, or eluded him somehow. How about a punch to the face?
