Cheney Stadium

Look, we're not going to sit here and make fun of colon cancer. That would be fucked up. Even we know that. But, like, does anyone else feel like maybe the folks behind the second annual Undy 5000 this Saturday at Cheney Stadium went a little overboard? Anyone else feel like the event's ACTUAL description as  "a family-friendly run/walk, which encourages participants to run in their boxers to bring attention to the area affected by colon cancer," is just kind of over-the-top? Like, maybe we could have raised money and awareness to help fight a deadly disease without getting down to our skivvies and reminding everyone where poop comes from? Maybe it's just us.
