The Arrow Straight And True
And now, stepping up to the range, we have Xander Douglas. You may recall Xander just missed a spot on the American archery team during the last Olympics games.
Perhaps driven by that failure, Xander has competed since like a man possessed, burning through every match, winning the World Games, and landing himself a spot on this team as a favorite to take it all. There’s no doubt he’s got his sights set on Olympic gold.
And now he’s lined up. Careful concentration, aaaand…he shoots. Wait –
Oh I can’t believe this? What is this? Oh, I should’ve seen this coming.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we said he’d set his sights on the gold medal and we weren’t lying. He’s shot the gold medal! He’s shot it straight through the center!
Why would he do that?
We do not know.
But.
He won’t be winning the gold with that behavior! No Sir! He might even have to pay for that.
In any case, with that bit of drama, we cut away to the new Olympic sport of Mixed Sand Curling, already in progress. Jack?
