Best one yet! There's always at least one of these at every meet who gets a nice crowd response after their loud start. It's usually a guy with a big gut.

I had a team mate from highschool in 1980-81 with one of those and a cape when he went to the block it was funny!
At least he could actually back it up.

I saw a Mr. fall into the pool before the buzzer guy at a meet earlier this year. He took it in stride with a smile on his face!

* Caffeine dopes their 8-year-old before meets
* Marches up to the officials to verify times for the swimmer that just beat their kid
* Run up and down the deck yelling at their kid to kick harder during the mile
* Tells the kid to ignore what the coach said about technique, just move their arms faster and kick harder
* Argue with the coach that their 8-year-old needs to do 2-a-days
* Fudges entry times to get a kid into a meet they aren't eligible to swim
* Will buy his 10-year-old "B/C" swimmer a $300 technical swimsuit but won't participate in the team fundraiser or pay training fees on time.
* Feeds their swimmer ballpark nachos or chili dogs right before his event
Mr I Have A Cramp Pansy Guy
Conveniently comes up with a cramp whenever he doesn't want to finish a set
