Some friends and I once set up a table/camping stove in the middle of the road down which a (okay, only 12k) race was running. We fried bacon (which you could smell for blocks) and offered it to the runners. We also took turns brandishing long bamboo poles (à la fishing poles) from which dangled doughnuts. It was surprising how many people actually indulged (mostly the laggers at the back; I imagine the more serious runners were tortured by the bacon smells, even if they didn't partake). Good fun, until the second time the police came.
The priceless moment that we sadly did not catch on camera: dangled doughnut from pole over the head of motorcycle cop AND HE BIT! :)
