I thought most states dumped the javelin is HS meets years ago. I know in the Peoples Republic of Maryland I think it got canned in 1984. Or did it start making a comeback. I mean I know banning tag and dodgeball is silly, but 14 to 18 year olds throwing a spear is kinda different. Although it isn't the kids fault they guy got hit in this case.

A leeson to pay attention whenever you are near people throwing pointy objects into the air.

That is a once in a lifetime photo though...great conversation starter

Such as.... "Hey, I've got something pointy on me!"

I saw, I came, I left.

We still have the pole vault here in PA and MD so maybe it is a western US thing.

That was kind of gross...but kind of cool too!

It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | 🌐 Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports 🔗

No, she said, "I've got something pointy IN me!"

I saw, I came, I left.
