Will Ferrell: Thank you, thank you very much. I wanted to thank Siegfried and Roy
behind me for this award I saw the white Bengal tiger back stage it’s
beautiful. They’re bringing out one of the whales and the dolphins are
coming out here they’re going to have a tank its going to be great you
guys will be here till 3 in the morning but its going to be great.
Well I don’t think I have won an award since like the third grade so this is
great. I have you know doing. We’ve run two marathons and the whole
endurance athlete thing has really opened my eyes to a whole new world
of appreciation for what you guys do. I have shaved body parts I never
knew I could shave. I have had diarrhea at certain points in my life that I
didn’t think I would have. If you don’t mind I just want to fuel up here in
between.
I like vanilla. Banana is okay, chocolate starts to taste gross around mile
18. I want to thank Bob Abbot for having me on his radio show a couple
of times and Paul Huddle for letting me beat him in the San Diego race.
Also I want to thank a couple of people who are here with me tonight. I
want to thank Gary – my coach who has taught me not so much so many
things about running and believing in yourself and about life and he has
made me cry a couple of times after yelling at me.
I want to thank the City of Sta. Monica Police Department for yelling at
me for running in the bike lane when you’re not supposed to and what
else. I’m going to be shaving myself back stage if anyone wants to come
back there so thank you very much and one other thing too I just want to
say the people in this room and the people you represent you truly are the
greatest athletes in the world if you don’t get the credits that you deserve
so I’m honored thank you.
