Las May cartoon published in the Jamaica Gleaner newspaper on August 20, 2008.
Many found Bolt's post-win antics to be humorous and befitting of his age and personality, meanwhile the NBC TV commentators for the most part were not amused.
Somehow they seem to have forgotten that the Americans are the originators and Kings & Queens of post-win showboating, particularly in the track & field events.

Former 200m world record holder Michael Johnson, commentating for the BBC on Thursday, August 20, 2009: said that Usain Bolt will not break his 200 metres world record later on that day (in the 200M World Championships final) because he's been exerting himself a lot and showing signs of fatigue.
Bolt smashed 0.11 seconds of his own record in the race later that day!
