"South Pasadena High pole vaulter Robin Laird thought she won a league championship last month when her final vault clinched the meet. Then the opposing coach helpfully pointed out that she was wearing a string around her wrist. Clutch!

Track rules clearly state that "Jewelry shall not be worn by contestants" and I guess a braided friendship bracelet is technically jewelry. (It's also technically a rope!) So Laird was disqualified from the vault—the final event of the match—and as a result, rival Monrovia High School won the Rio Hondo League title. Fair? Well, at least one coach thinks so!"

Robin Laird will still be hot for the next 35 years at least, the coach will be forgotten in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Coach who?
