boon's log 3607.02: What to do when bored in office...

... well, organize your very own Office Chair Race, of course!

No kidding, these folks from Amsterdam enjoy an Annual National Office Chair Racing Championship.


NK Bureaustoelracen (Nederlands Kampioenschap Bureaustoelracen)

There is a clip on YouTube (click here) showing the championship that just happened a couple of weeks ago on August 17th. It's hilarious. I mean to create such a sport and to get people to actually join in - is total wackiness! All you need is a person crazy enough to be in the front seat and another person behind the chair "driving" it.

Notice that the starting line is actually a desk! Well, if you do plan to engage in this "ingenious" office activity, please do practice caution and "drive safely"...

Oh by the way, in case you are interested in the sountrack playing behind the clip, it's by Gorillaz, 19/2000.

boon out...
