Both Rasmussen and Voigt ditch their helmets into the team car at the foot of the climb. A male fan chases them, dressed in a thong.

Basso takes over, looking fresh and hungry. Armstrong gets a push from a fan, who runs for about 300 metres beside the lead duo. There's another nude runner too.

I did like the Cutters guy in the Armstrong football jersey, with the Longhorn Helmet and the Huge Flag, that was cool. Becuase he stayed out of the way, and he didnt't touch anyone.

Even Phil was annoyed.

I didn't get the sense that Phil was annoyed. More like he was amused. I have to confess, being from Texas, I thought it was amusing. Not terribly safe, but amusing I really don't care what they do on the course (as long as it's legal). If French TV wants to show it, fine w/ me. We all know Basque fans can be worse It's when OLN actually blocks time apartfor that type of stuff *off the course* that I get annoyed. Anyway, the "hit and run" accident (more like "here's $50 to run into the motor home over there") has taken care of things...?

They may not be on OLN, but they will be at the Tour, I have photos of them running along side the racers in the 2003 Tour.
Not the Cutters, but some nutters.......
and this one was in the same folder so i posted it too, I like this one.
In the video for the 2001 Tour, during one of the Mountain Stages the Cutters are wearing football helmets and Dallas Cowboy Jerseys, One guy is carrying a football and running in front of the peleton, the other guy was in front of him, acting as the fullback and blocking, It was pretty damn funny. I know they sit around at night, and try to think up sillier and sillier scenarios and for that, I love em. Maybe they shouldn't be broadcast into everyones living room, but their enthusiasm is genuine, and they make me laugh.
