Loo-sers' become winners
Tuesday, February 27, 2007
Whoever said winter sports were going down the pan clearly haven't seen any toilet racing recently. In most parts of the world the letters WC stand for water closet. But in the Lithuanian town of Trakai they stand for winter craziness, where they not only hire and sell portable toilets - they race them.
Hundreds of competitors and spectators braved sub-zero temperatures to take part in the latest winter craze on frozen Lake Galves. The racing featured teams of five - four of them pushing the toilet across the ice, and one holding on for dear life on the hot seat. The tactics were simple - open up an early lead, be first to the bend, and then use your bulk to stop any opponent from overtaking.
"Team Number Two" lived up to their pre-race billing and slid to victory.

There's a cheap pun about "taking the piss" that I'm not going to mention.
