“This would finally be his moment, the opportunity he has always been waiting for. Will he land the wad of paper into the bucket, who knows!” “He positions himself on the edge of the seat. Holding, holding, hooooollldddiiinng.” “A slight bump on the road causes him to lose his balance but he knows how crazy this route is and doesn’t let it throw him off his game.
