  • Ten second rule
rdfs:comment
  • The first recorded implementation of the ten-second rule occurred at the Great Paris Escargot Celebration of 1888 when Pierre "Amoureaux d'Escargot" LaRue disastrously allowed a heavily buttered crustacean to slip through his fingers and onto the table in front of him. The match referee allowed him to eat the snail, but only after punishing his clumsiness with ten seconds of penalty time added to his total. The gaffe allowed Andre "Mangeur de Fruits de Mer" Goulet to win the contest. The match has been largely forgotten to history, but its legacy has endured.
