Chess
Yep...that's why I said it sort of could be a sport. But not if you are wearing a suit. That's like a sub-rule. My kids are also familiar with my "pet rule." If I open the door to let it out, and it comes back, it's a pet. If not, it's an animal and doesn't belong in my house.

It's funny how important sports events are equated to a chess game.

In 1888, Chess was considered a "sport"......
 And, you had to be all gussied-up to play Tennis......  TED Z T206 Reference .

I've heard the same arguments about golf. Is it a game or is it a sport?

Not a sport. It's a game. Just like poker.

Brian - I love the T218 set and have a copy of the Edward Weston card on my shelf at work, next to several baseball cards. It's a conversation starter.
When people ask about it I tell them that the back of his card has probably the most impressive stats I've ever read on a card. Those numbers are amazing!
