Hamster Races!

Current Mood:

The pet store where Steve works had hamster races this past Saturday. What they do is they lay tracks and you're supposed to put your hamster in a ball so that when they run, the ball follows the tracks.


It was a lot of fun watching those hamsters go. In one race, the leading hamster (the one in the green ball) got right up to about an inch shy of the finishing line, then it decided to turn back and run the OTHER way :-).

Steve thought it would be funny to get a hamster's view of the race, because almost ALL races have at least one camera showing you what it looks like from the racer's point of view :-).

Prizes were given out. Mostly it was hamster food for the runner-ups, but the grand prize winner won a plastic Harley Davidson model, and where the motorcyle's tire was supposed to be there was a big hamster wheel :-).

There's probably going to be another hamster race in July, and I've heard talks about making the tracks fancier for that one :-). That should be fun to watch :-).
