Coaches should not stub out their cigar on a swimmer's arm. Oh, yes he did: stand-in coach, 1959, was giving us a 'pep' talk and went to extinguish said cigar on diving board support (without looking) and didn't realize that little 7 year old future master of purple prose had wedged himself in there. Yeow!
