Its provocative, it gets the people going.I really do grimace whenever I hear people say "Twenny" instead of twenty. It is now becoming prevalent, even with BBC presenters. I was watching athletics on the BBC last weekend and before the start of the 200 meters race, the commentator was giving all the athlete's best times. He must have said "Twenny" about thirty times in as many seconds.
Also, why do some athletes make silly gestures when being announced to the crowd?
