For the Fasano family, frogs are a way of life. Bob Fasano comes from a long line of champion frog jumpers. In May 1998, at Calaveras County Fairgrounds, Bob won the world cup of all frog-jumping competitions. Bob's hopper, a California bullfrog named Pretty Lady, leaped 19 feet, four inches to clinch the title. The victory marked the Gustine Frog Team's 40th anniversary as competitors in the International Frog Jump. (The Fasano clan named their team after the region where they get their famed frogs.) Bob's father, Gene Fasano, won in 1998. Bob's brother, Frank, won in 1979. This year, Bob's son Joseph, age 8, took sixth place. Six-year-old Amanda hopped away with second place in the junior jumper division. Even 16-month-old Justin competes in the baby class.
