Unbeknown to him, the Qld spies had been observing his throws and a precise mathematical analysis determined the exact included angle of the throwing wedge, outside of which Mr H0ugh’s throws would land with a confidence of 60% ± 10%.

Well, as we all by now know, fate stepped in and took a hand. As a result, the finest and longest throw ever witnessed at the Astrofest, fell just outside the harsh, unyielding, dispassionate, unfeeling marker lines.

Sorry dude; great effort, but better luck next year.
