The Advantage of Winning the Silver Medal
In the Olympic Women's Gymnastics Team and Individual All Around competitions, Viktoria Komova won the silver medal, and she was visibly upset, crying into her hands. Oh, but when the werewolves attack, she'll see that she came out on top! That's right: when the Werewolves of London come out, athletes who won the gold medal will try to fight off the werewolves with it, but they'll just laugh, kill them, and drink their blood. Oh, but with a silver medal, you can fight them off! After all, Larry Talbot beat a werewolf to death with his silver-headed walking stick, so obviously an Olympic silver medal will work just as well, especially in the skilled hands of a champion gymnast! And as Komova has won two silver medals so far, she can just take one in each hand and swing them around, slashing her way through a veritable army of werewolves! So after escaping from the ravenous claws and teeth of this furry menace, she may be the last Olympain standing who is not by then stricken with the curse of the werewolf, damned to an eternity on Earth seeking innocent human blood! And I'll bet by then she'll be glad and indeed grateful to have won the silver medal(s) after all!
