Historical Boner July 4, 2010 16 Comments

Boners have been around since before most of us were born – the above photo was taken in 1921, after a swimming competition in the Delaware River. We like how the original caption explains how this man won the event “by default after the first-place finisher was disqualified for completing the 10-mile event in the Delaware River without a swimsuit.” Perhaps that explains the boner?
