Some Sports Facts

Well, as you knoiw, I am quite good with facts and everything, so I am going to do some sports facts, as I know you love sports but better, you ADORE my facts.

1. Chess is actually classed as a sport.
2. There's a sport called ' extreme ironing ' it's where you iron clothes, but you wakeboard at the same time.
3. Football in the tudor times was the deadliest game, you was aloud to stab people, kick them, and even suffocate them, also football pitches where around 1-5 miles long!

If you want anymore facts, just post down

These were actually interesting to read.. Post more!

Heres one thats interested

The Pittsburgh Pirates' almost built a new stadium in the middle of a river.

Okay, more like over a river. In a construction proposal by the NADCO Engineering Co. back in the '50s, the Pirates' new stadium would have sat directly over the Monongahela River. If built, the 70,000 seating capacity structure would have also contained 600 hotel rooms, 4,500 parking stalls and 100 air conditioned bowling lanes.
