Best signs from the 2022 Boston Marathon

There are many memorable things about the Boston Marathon, but the support runners get from the crowds is like no other marathon. What makes Boston unique is its point-to-point course starting from Hopkinton, Mass., to Boylston St. in downtown Boston. Spectators will often take to the countryside, suburban townships and college campuses along the course with motivational signs to support the runners.

Between the students at Wellesley College and Spencer, the “official” Boston Marathon dog, there were plenty of great signs from this year’s race.

This is relevant 

The best sign at this year’s Boston Marathon was someone who printed out a giant image of Will Smith’s head and put it on a piece of cardboard.

Everyone who ran past slapped the shit out of it.
