If someone didn't see the race, and just watched the celebrations, one might've though Thompson won the race, The man did a jump, skip, scream, flip, roll, toss, turn, wine, wukkup, stoop, levitate, breakdance, wave, cry, laugh, tink me all see him buss a Dutty Wine.

The man was EXCITED, and i don't blame him one bit. Congrats to Richard Thompson.

It did wicked to see 6 out of the 8 runners coming from the Caribbean....and even better to see 2 of them pick up medals.
