dwarf-tossing-for-web.jpgIn the mid 80’s a sport emerged in pubs and bars and took America by storm. That sport was midget tossing or dwarf tossing.

The rules were simple; grab a little person and throw him or her as far as you possibly can.

Now we’re sure many of you think this was very cruel, but keep in mind that these flying little people got paid a giant sum to be hurled by drunken pub patrons. Some of them made over $100,000.00 a year until 1989 when the sport became banned in the US.

The longest midget toss on record that we could find was made during the British Dwarf Tossing championships of 2002 when Jimmy Leonard of England tossed all 4′4″ and 98 pounds of Lenny the Giant a giant 11 feet 5 inches.

I’m not sure I even have words for this one.

That is because there are no words…except props for the LOTR reference.

Speaking of dwarfs -
I rear-ended one with my car this morning..
Great way to start the day huh?
It gets worse – the guy gets out of the car and storms over to mine screaming that he is NOT Happy!
So I asked him which one he was?
That is how the fight started.

Sorry…

I have words, oh boy do I have words. I have ideas even. I mean I am sure I can make this into some sort of “ministry” and with the conections you have maybe be like the opening act for someone somewhat strange, say like Crowder?
