Trundlethon (n.)
A child's tricycle race.
Trundlethons are an immensely competitive sport,
particularly in Holland, where bystanders are frequently trampled to death by
over-competitive parents trying to egg their child on by shouting
‘COME ON RUTGER, YOU'RE SO MUCH
BETTER THAN ANY OF THOSE OTHER KIDS, AND YOU HAD BETTER WIN OR MUMMY AND DADDY
WON'T LOVE YOU ANY MORE!’, or words to
that effect.
