You Make the Call!
  • While you were busy rooting for West Virgnia to pull out a NIT championship, Thomas and Aaron were having a Whynatte tournament of their own in San Diego. They set up their tournament in proper bracket fashion, with one contestant facing off against the next, and the winner of the Whynatte tournament taking home 4 kilos of freshly harvested latte, and the tusk of 1 Pacific Walrus.

    In the end, it came down to a prolific face off of Whynatte muscle: Aaron versus Thomas. Unfortunately, the final match of the tournament was too close to call. Now, it’s up to you, the readers of Whynatte.com. We need you to take a look at the video below, and tell us who finished their Whynatte first. Whoever has the most votes by 5pm on Monday wins a free Whynatte shirt.

    Vote for either Aaron on the left, or Thomas on the right:

    Thomas by a latte bean.

  • it looks like thomas won because he gets up all victorious, but if you look carefully aaron is the winner.

  • I should mention, first of all, that Thomas should not be competing in such a contest. If his heart is beating half as fast as his leg is shaking, I hope for his health that they are slamming decaf whynattes. That being said, the winner in this event is Aaron. You can see in the video that Thomas is the official time keeper, dictating when it is time to drop the shot. Beacuse he can anticipate the exact moment of the drop, he is a drop ahead of Aaron (watch Aaron take his que based on Thomas’ drop). Aaron starts his drop once Thomas’ has already hit the bottom of the glass. Aaron does finish slighty after Thomas, although no longer than the delay of the shot dropping, thus the faceoff is a draw. Since I am certain that it was Thomas who initiated this faceoff, you have to give the tie to the challenger. Aaron=1 Tom=0

  • Tom finished first, but he started first too.

  • Thomas.

    But he was pumping his leg like some sort of shot gun for a few seconds before.

    Distraction technique.

  • Cheating is part of the whynatte essence. Thomas wins.

  • Hmmm…..

    Looked kind of like a tie. Tom had the quicker reaction to finishing, but I’m not sure he really did beat him. Plus, I kind of want to see what’s left in his glass.

  • I am going to go with tom. However both should be proud of the fact that neither spilled as much as johnny latte did when we faced off. To determine the true champ you gotta do two in a row, the speed will show itself in two

  • I agree with Haytown on this one. True speed comes with two in a row. And, yes, they should be proud they are not wearing any like I did. Not making any excuses, but I would love a rematch when A) I am not fresh off three pieces of pizza and B) I am not sitting down. Haytown, this summer it’s on like Donkey Kong. Until then, focus on your law studies…

    I still think Aaron is faster although Thomas finished first…

  • Just by the fact that thomas came close, should make him the winner. Aaron ussually whips the floor with thomas… hell, my 16 year old cusin could ussually whips the floor with thomas. I am impressed young grasshopper.

  • Tom

  • This is the most exciting race since Barkley vs. Bavetta at All-Star Weekend.

    I have to give the edge to Tom because he finished first but I do agree that Aaron finished his beverage faster.

    I think the way to settle future disputes is to incorporate a 100-yard dash prior to the drinking.

  • I think Mike Walbert’s response should count for two because of his use of incredible grammar and spelling

  • You should see MIke Walbert’s performance in “Spellbound,” if you really want to see creative spelling and grammar. He beat out an entire Pakistani Kindergarten (K. I. N. D. E. R. G. A. R. T. E. N.) He was amazing.

  • There is actually another clip of us in a final round. It should be up shortly. We actually have a woman dropping the jag into the latte for us….

  • neither…because I can pound one faster.

  • i was kinda impressed by how guy on left holds his latte so low, i think that deserves extra points right there
