Victorian racing minister Rob Hulls said he couldn’t understand the point of the race.

Midget Cup?

 

No, sorry. Not into that.

 

This. This is my sport....

They should pass a law declaring that short people are not allowed to participate in races, sports or other outdoor activity.

What? That would be discriminatory?? Oh, Gee.

Think of the shoe endorsement possibilities!

Oh, come on, we have matters of national significance that dwarf this problem.

Shortened to midget?.....

Yep...a new low in racing. :)

Have The cow races at Mt. Compass lost their allure?

[Alex Murphy]

Three men raced down a 50m stretch with a short statured person on each of their backs....

....Meredith Tripp, a former president of the Short Statured People of Australia association, told the newspaper that events that made fun of short statured people made it harder for them to go through life without being subject to ridicule.

The humor behind the concept must have gone right over their heads.

I don't get it. Is it just POM’s and their offshoots that have a thing for dwarfs. Other than Hienlien’s warning about making fun of short people, ‘they will kill you’, I'm entirely clueless what the interest is.

I think that all midget jockeys SHOULD wear a cup in their jockeys.

Short people revolt, topple the tallees

In a horrific event seen only by those who were looking, the short people revolted. All across the country the shorter members of society bum-rushed those who couldn't see them.
"It was terrible, the door burst open, and no-one saw who came in! The next thing I know, about a dozen people are jumping up and down on me!" said one witness who declined to give his name, stating he didn't know 'who might be listening'. A few victims of the revolt complained about hearing "paxil" mentioned during the melee.

The makers of Paxil have declined to comment.
New recruitment add comes out after Revolt.

In an odd twist to the tale of the revolt earlier today, the military sent out a new recruitment video showing a group of tall men being taken down by seemingly crazed, short, and heavily armed people in uniform. Being heavily edited, we cannot show it at this time.

A man who viewed the video commented on it's apparently unscripted nature.
"Those guys looked like they had no idea what happened!" he said between laughs and gasps for air. He went on to describe the look on one of the men's faces in the video.
"He had this look like, 'Oh my gosh, this is awful. Where did all these AAAAAAAAaah!' Then they dropped him flat and kicked the *Expletive* out of him."
The end of the video had a line about the armed forces and "Be invisible, be feared."

The Pentagon is not commenting.
