Evidence of this is clearly seen by the success of NASCAR (now the number one sport in the world, based on attendance), or the popularity of "demolition derbies" at any of hundreds of county fairgrounds across America. Is this true? Do NASCAR attendances really exceed those of football (soccer)? I don't know about the *whole* world, but there is no NASCAR in Europe, but there is soccer. Soccer is not that polpular in the US (as far as I was told), but is very popular in many other parts of the world. http://www.google.com/search?q=most+popular+sport is what google turns up about that. -- The more one is absorbed in fighting Evil, the less one is tempted to place the Good in question. (J.P. Sartre) The U.S. women's soccer team has managed to create some new interest in soccer within the United States. Perhaps it will remain for awhile. As for NASCAR in Europe; if NASCAR ever invades formula 1, they will have no doubt have drivers with names like Bobby Ray Hall!!!! :-)))) Dudley Henriques International Fighter Pilots Fellowship Commercial Pilot/ CFI Retired For personal email, please replace the at with what goes there and take out the Z's please! dhenriquesZatZearthZlinkZdotZnet |
