I had it right but I stated it poorly.

My point is that Iowanian is at the top and as an upward moving escalator, that means the escalator is coming in his direction.

So Sofa King's disadvantage of having to run uphill is mitigated by the fact that he'll have the escalator helping him do it.

Like I said - Iowanian gets 6 seconds tops before Sofa King is on his ass. If he has a brain in his head, he realizes this and scraps that BB gun altogether. There's just not enough time to get a couple shots off and then wind up that boomerange for a decent throw.

He needs to be standing there at the starting whistle with his feet set, arm cocked and boomerang in hand knowing full well that if the first throw misses, he's almost certainly ****ed.

It will. He is.
