"Broke Again"

No we're not talking about money here, Banana George has broken his back for the second time this year.

You may recall that Banana suffered a nasty fall performing a running dock start at the Southern Regional's, at McCormicks Lake on May 19th, in which he fractured his T9 vertebrae.  Since then, George has had a steady recovery -- even performing exhibitions at his Blairfoot Bananza Tournament on October 6th.

Well that recovery came to a halt on Sunday November 4th, 2001.  While barefooting with some friends in Winter Haven, Banana George took a spill that unknowingly fractured his L2 vertebrae.  He was in severe pain for 3 days until he visited his physicians on Wednesday November 7th and confirmed the fracture.

He is doing much better now and is focusing on a speedy but safe return to the water.

Send Banana your get well wishes.
