(By the way - I love explaining dry jokes, as I think it adds to the absurdity of the original joke).
Babe seated is boring and dwarfed by others? 
Also, I think the Olympics photo you posted is probably actually iconic, even outside of our hobby. |
FWIW, I did laugh when I saw the Ryan/Ventura photo alongside the rest and finishing up your post.
