The organizers of the Diamond League wanted to thank the top athletes Emmanuel Karalis and Milto Tedoglou for their participation in the athletics meeting in Lausanne, giving them a special gift.
The gold medalist in the long jump and the bronze medalist in the pole vault received an unexpected gift. What was that? Three kilos of cheese.
Emmanuel Karalis, who is known on social media for his hilarious stories and teasing Miltos Tedoglou, published some stories on his personal Instagram account, in which he is pictured posing with the gift. The athlete appears to be in awe of their gift, making a funny face as he hugs it. Of course, Miltos Tedoglou seems to have had the same reaction, as we can see from the snapshots.
