A Texas high school track team was disqualified from a track meet, which stopped them from competing in state, because the anchor of one of the relay teams pointed to the sky after crossing the finish line. The school said it's because he broke the "excessive celebration" rule. I get them wanting the teams to show good sportsmanship and not gloat or anything, but it's not like he broke into song and dance or anything...he just pointed at the sky. Seems really ridiculous and not "excessive" at all.
