    Bush had a smile the whole time. I love him.

    I don't know how security is handled internationally, but I'm surprised he had time to throw a 2nd shoe. In the video, you can see about half a dozen SS come out of the back door.

    I'm still amazed he actually was Pres for 8!!!!!! years!! :?

    Well you have to figure the SS did a complete frisk and sweep of everything and everyone but who would figure shoes?
    Actually I believe that in the Arab world the throwing of shoes at someone is a sign of disrepect to that person.

    This is true. That said, you'd think this guy's shoe throwing would have been more accurate, or he would have double clutched on the second throw to fake Bush out. :)

    Considering, I think he WAS pretty accurate. Only Bush's switft moves allowed him to avoid what would have been two head shots.

    Reagan catches a richoted bullet to the gut, and Bush dodges a pair of Nikes.

    I can't believe this is the second time in less than a month that I posted this video.

    And two months ago, the guy who played Random Task (the shoe thrower, real name Joe Son) was arrested for gang rape.

    Ahhh, the circle of life! Or something.

    You kidding you Met fans should fly out there and get him! He threw two perfect strikes and the second one with guys in his face. Could help when you need a couple of outs to get into the playoffs. :mrgreen:
