Beat the Cock!: Difference between revisions

'''Beat The Cock!''' is the name of two triathlon events in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] that take place on only on Saturdays and Sundays. They consist of swimming, running and bike riding. The triathlon is notable for having man dressed in the [[Cluckin' Bell]] suit take part of the event. The first Beat the Cock challenge is located in [[Santa Maria Beach]], [[Los Santos]]; next to the pathway that goes to the [[Los Santos Lighthouse|lighthouse]]. The other is at [[Fisher's Lagoon]] in [[Red County]], near [[Northstar Rock]] and [[Palomino Creek]]. [[Carl Johnson]] needs to come in first in order to beat the event. By competing in the event, Carl is automatically given [[Pro-Laps]] 'Ball Shorts' to wear.

The triathlon that starts at Santa Maria Beach, starts with swimming across the [[Los Santos Inlet]], to [[Flint County]]. Then you must cycle to the [[Avispa Country Club]], through Flint County's woods. The triathlon ends with a sprint to the top of [[Missionary Hill]]. The reward is $10,000. At the Fisher's Lagoon triathlon, the player first must swim the 9 checkpoint, then the bike course is extremely long (approximately 13 minutes ). The course takes you through [[Hilltop Farm]], [[Blueberry]], into [[San Fierro]] and [[Tierra Robada]] and finally into [[Las Venturas]]. The reward for this triathlon is also $10,000.  

Whereas in some automotive racing challenges when the player could shoot the opponent and get away with it, shooting the opponents while racing in this race will result in an instant disqualification, as well as not getting on/off your bike in the 25 second limit.

It is highly recommended to finish the [[Burglary]] side-missions before attempting these events, as the infinite sprint is almost crucial in winning.
