Running 75- 100 Butch
In this little section of the book peter is in a race against the town of fuling. He manages to take the lead while all the natives fall behind. He is yelled at by bystanders saying "out of country person out of country person"while watching the race since he is white. these people judge him for being foreign. He has a unique way of thinking once he is in the lead. Since a while back he was in a basketball tournament; where the ref of the game was calling ghost fouls on peter and adam profusely. Peter said at one point even if he just touched the ball the whistle was blown. Peter remembers this as he's running in first. He see's how stubborn the people of fuling are towards him, just like the ref. But this time there are no refs, so peter takes full pride in showing the town what he's made of. When he finishes first the people still chant out Waigouren again and again but it didn't bother him a bit.
