PHOTOS: The Most Hilarious Spectator Signs at the 2015 Philadelphia Marathon

Yesterday, about 30,000 runners took to the streets to tackle the Philadelphia Marathon and the Philadelphia Half Marathon, and a bunch more lovely humans lined the streets to cheer them on with some fantastic signs. So first off, big round of applause for everyone who ran — I sure hope you treated yourself to a chocolate croissant this morning because you deserve it. And secondly, big round of applause for the spectators. I’m sure plenty of runners would’ve collapsed well before the finish line were it not for all your encouraging marathon-related “Your mom” jokes and T-Rex costumes. Seriously.

Below, our favorite signs from this year’s race. Get ready to chuckle.
