IndyCar Driver Sebastien Bourdais Drops Trophy, Hilarity Ensues
Sébastien Bourdais came second in the IndyCar race in Toronto yesterday, and was accordingly given a trophy. Said trophy proceeded to completely fall apart and bounce away from his hands before shattering. It looks like they don't make trophies like they used to.
Here are some eminently caption-able photos of the whole incident:

Don't feel bad for poor Sebastien though. He looks like he took the whole thing in stride, and besides, he's got a bunch of other trophies at home.
H/t to Kelso!
