Okay, so let's see- how many ways are there to get DQ'd
in a steeplechase...
(Malmo? chime in...)
The LIST's Top-Ten Reasons List
10. Ran around a hurdle
9. Went under a hurdle
8. Trail leg around a hurdle
7. Kung-Fu'd the hurdle into a pile of splinters
6. Jump to side of water pit instead of through or over
5. Intentionally pulled plug on water pit on Lap #1
4. Break competitor's rib with your elbow (only enforced
by IAAF when the fracture is compound)
3. Fail the doping test (not known until weeks later)
2. Fail the gender test (nobody WANTS to know)
And Today's #1 answer...
1. Exceeding the IAAF GP-II special experimental rule
maximum of two attempts to get over a hurdle
