Cheating at Fishing, Among Other Things

There was a giant scandal at a fishing tournament at Lake Erie on or around 10/1/22. Chase Cominsky and Jake Runyan cheated by stuffing their fish with lead weights, among other things. Here is the link to the blog by Billy Football of Barstool Sports: https://www.barstoolsports.com/blog/3436292/video-huge-fishing-competition-scandal

There's a video at the blog which is about 2 minutes long. Here is a longer video of the same event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdsVAu5iDzc

About 9:26, the cheating team #12, gets their fish weighed, and lo and behold, their fish are way heavier than anyone else's. The guy running the tournament, for whatever reason, decides he's going to inspect one of the winning fish. With cheating Jake Runyan looking on, he digs out a lead weight, and exclaims, "WE GOT WEIGHTS IN FISH"! And then all hell breaks loose.

We've got the Magnus Carlsen vs. Hans Niemann cheating saga in chess. Then we've got this controversy in poker: https://www.pokernews.com/news/2022/09/garrett-adelstein-befuddled-42192.htm , where established pro Garrett Adelstein accuses newbie Robbi Jade Lew of cheating.

My general thoughts about cheating throughout the video.
