Collins Injera of Kenya is an international rugby star who recently scored his 200th try (the rough equivalent of a touchdown in football) in the World Sevens Series, and he celebrated in a very expensive manner indeed. -

Taking a cue from Terrell Owens and tennis players of late, Injera had stashed a permanent marker in his sock. And once he notched the try, he ran over to the nearest camera and autographed the lens. -

It's a nice idea; tennis players have done it on occasion, and it makes for a great visual. But those tennis players are signing a thin sheet of protective glass. There was no such protection on the lens Injera signed, and replacing it will cost about $94,000. -

njera's feat is indeed notable; for numerical comparison purposes, Emmitt Smith holds the NFL touchdown record with 164. But we're predicting his lenses-signed mark will stay at 1. -
