I won't lie; it's hard to be upbeat with Ted Kennedy still in the hospital. But to lift your spirits, here's something the Senator from Massachusetts no doubt would have attempted, had he been 40 years younger and on the infield at Pimlico on Sunday. Will this brave fan's attempted leap from one portable toilet to another during the Preakness Stakes end in triumph, or Epic Fail? The result, following the jump. And thanks to Tracy Ham And Eggs for discovering these photos from the Baltimore Sun.
