What are your thoughts on midget tossing?

Would you tune in to a televised event consisting of the throwing of paid dwarfs/midgets over the age of 18? Would you be willing to travel to watch it in person?

    [:D]Some of them are heavy and awkward to throw. You'll get more leverage with the vest and helmet.

    I have been on the receiving end of that since they first started showing it on TV . anything to do with vertically challenged .
    always wanting to know If I am going to start a new job of being thrown ( the answer is no,, but then I have had no offers [:D][:D])

    I get the short end of the deal . just a few of the popular nick names I have but after 58 years I know any new show involving a short fellow I will hear about it [:D][:D]

    Strike while the iron is hot. This thing could take off with NASCAR viewership dwindling the opportunity is here now. How would you like to be known as Ditch-Runner two time dwarf throwing champion. You'll be signing guitars, cars, guns and other stuff that has absolutely no connection to dwarf throwing.

    Exactly. The people that care the most have obviously never thrown a midget.

    I would pay to see the monthly welfare group tossed into a arena and toss in cash lets go with 20.00 bills, and a bag full of base ball bats
    what they can hold on to with out being beaten and robbed they keep, its all they get that month nothing else coming there way . no rules winner(s) take all the leftovers will be used for body parts .
    local population votes who goes in each month

    Although always described as a cowboy, Roswellnative generally acts as a righter of wrongs or bodyguard of some sort, where he excels thanks to his resourcefulness and incredible gun prowesses.

    That's a wonderful idea also. The Libs would shut that down quick though. So I'd be back to square one in no time. This midget thing is gonna get Rollin'.

    Nothing like launching a midget down the lane and not caring whether you hit any pins ain't it? Most of the time I aim for the gutter.

    The rules are very strict and the number of fingers used is not in the rule book. The rules go like this first you step up to the line. There will be five midgets to choose from. You pick the midget you want to throw, make sure his helmet is on tight, take a three step run and throw that little son of a gun as far as possible. That's it.

    I dated a gal that was 4'9". She'd overhear someone comment on how tiny she was she'd turn and tell them "I'm not short, I'm fun size".

    Would the rules allow for a hammer throw type toss?...that would make things a little more exciting.

    This is a serious midget throwing thread. If you think a hammer throw will get more distance by all means set that little bugger flying.

    No finals. Each person gets to throw one midget, the person who tosses the midget the furthest wins. In the event of a tie whoever threw the heaviest midget wins. In the unlikely event that both competitors threw the same midget, we'll draw straws.
