The Rough Guide To Cult Sport
Rough Guide, 2011
Beyond merely “quirky”, Cult Sport takes a tour of the world’s weirdest competitive sports – bun climbing, bog snorkeling, extreme ironing – and meets some of the most unlikely sportsmen and women. It rakes over some of sport’s greatest controversies and relives bitter rivalries, while running through some ridiculous statistics. It also explains why some apparently mainstream sports have enduring cult appeal and why some players are loved in spite of never actually coming close to winning anything. Everything for the armchair sports fan or aspiring pub bore.
