Today I visited this boat racing place that is about a 10 minute walk from my home. I arrived just in time to see the end of the race. Right after his victory the champion sped around in his tiny speedboat bowing all the time. The guy had reason for being happy. He had just won about $400,000! 

The champion is throwing out prizes to his fans.
