A Boxer and a Champion Runner

A boxer went inside the toilet attached to the waiting room at a railway station. For fear of losing his overcoat, he fastened a card on it and left it on a stand in the room. The following lines were scribbled on the card “owned by a famous boxer who will be back in a few minutes.” After sometime he came back to take his overcoat on the stand he found a card which read, “Taken by a champion runner who is not coming back”
