Thumb-Wrestling The Mayor -- Nutter Goes Down!

Mayor Nutter was a good sport, posing for picture after picture for about 40 minutes this morning with the throng of children brought to City Hall for "Take Our Daughters & Sons To Work" day.  But then it all went south.  One little boy, who looked to be about four or five years old, stepped up to the mayor, who extended his hand for a shake.  Not having it, the boy grabbed the mayor's thumb.  Nutter's security detail stood transfixed.  Was this tyke really taking on the mayor in an impromptu thumb-wrestling match?

He was.  And the mayor came in second.

Later, Nutter spoke of launching a "rigorous thumb exercise workout routine."  And a little pay-back. "He did take me down and I am ... I am ... really impacted," Nutter said. "I'm dealing with it. By the end of the day, I'm going to track that kid down and demand a rematch."
