Many people have told me this would be the only blog they would ever need, if only I covered sports.
In response to that, we’ve put together a wrap-up of really odd athletic competitions you may have missed during the year.
I’m talking about folks hurling gasoline-soaked balls of fire at each other, women racing in stiletto heels, guys being run over by tractors and skiing in watermelons…
Sadly, there’s never enough time to cover all the stupid stuff in the world, so we failed to include platterball, cyclist hunting and chess boxing, among others. Oh well, maybe next year. Paul Chapman reports:
