Closest I've seen was my kid getting one for a charity run. I'm not sure it counts since it wasn't a race - everyone who ran got the same ribbon. My kid didn't even run - he was a scout and volunteered to raise the flag and lead the Pledge of Allegiance.

I think it's probably one of those things that happened in a few places and the right wingers talk about it like it happens everywhere.
