Q: How do you spell Lantern Rouge?
A: Lanterne Rouge
Q: What does Wikipedia know about the Lanterne Rouge?
A: The Lanterne Rouge is the competitor in last place in a cycling race such as the Tour de France. The phrase comes from the French "Red Lantern" and refers to the red lantern hung on the caboose of a railway train, which conductors would look for in order to make sure none of the couplings had become disconnected. (Couldn't have said it better myself.)
Q: Who is currently in last place in the Tour?
A: 181. Adriano Malori (Lampre) at 2:02:29, respectable.
Q: Does Adriano have a large enough gap this early in the Tour to hold off 180. Anthony Roux, FDJ, at 2:00:46?
A: I have no idea...
Q: Does it make you proud that an American has never come in last?
A: Hell yea!!
Q: Are you going to get a loan @rouleurderby to bet on it?
A: Hell yea!!
Special not appropriate @work question...
