Gym teacher Jason Kieronski is returning to Chicago empty handed after losing out in an international rock, scissors, paper tournament in Toronto.

Kieronski, 28, who teaches at a middle school in Glenview, says he was eliminated in the first round Saturday, losing to a woman from New York.

And to make it a bit more embarrassing, Kieronski's father, who originally only came along for the ride, decided to enter the contest himself and lasted into the second round.

About 500 people from around the world took part in the tournament at a Toronto brewery. The eventual champion was an Englishman from London.
