Summary:

Typically the most popular sports columnist in America puts his life (and dignity) on the line in search of probably the most absurd sporting event on earth.

What’s the stupidest sport in the globe? Not content to pontificate in the sidelines, Rick Reilly lay out on a global journey-with stops in Australia, New Zealand, Finland, Denmark, England, and even a maximum security prison at Angola, Louisiana-to discover the answer to this enduring question.

Through the physically and mentally taxing sport of about Sports from Hell: My Search for the World’s Dumbest Competition chess boxing towards the psychological battlefield this is the rock-paper-scissors championship, to the underground world of illegal jart throwing, to several competitions that involve nudity, Reilly, in his valiant quest, subjected himself to both bodily danger and abject humiliation (or, in the case of ferret legging, both).

These fringe sports present their participants an opportunity to earn several bucks and achieve the eternal glory that’s winning-even when the victory involved might strike some as pointless, just like the ability to sit in an oven-hot sauna for the longest time. It’s debatable whether these sports push your body or just individual idiocy towards the outermost limits, but a very important factor is for sure: Sports in Hell is definitely laugh-out-loud hilarious and will deliver a lot of unabashed fun.
