"Larry the Lobster" Claims Novelty Crown!
However, the day’s most unexpected, and perhaps most colorful, victory came in the Novelty Division. Young Master Jackson High, a spirited lad with an inventive streak, triumphed atop his famously customized contraption, affectionately known as "Larry the Lobster." This unique vehicle, adorned with bright red paint and crab-like handles, was a sensation, drawing gasps of delight and laughter from the onlookers as Jackson pedaled "Larry" to a decisive win.
Staff Showdown Sees Mr. Strange Victorious!
And for the grand finale, much to the delight of the students, a special staff exhibition race was held!
