Britain's Most Eccentric Sports

Britain is a nation of good sports- literally, it turns out, given our country;s wonderful array of eccentric and bizarrely inventive past-times. Yes, we know, New Zealand are good at rugby and Brazil are good at Soccer, while Australia and South Africa were countries specifically created for people who take sport far too seriously, but have those sporty nations ever produced a World Champion Pie Eater? (OK, Shane Warne notwithstanding). Has Brazil providedan F1 Pram World Racing Champ? Has an Aussie won the World Nettle Eating Championship? A New Zealander tossed his way to Haggis Hurling domination?
No! Because the turth is ladies and gentlemen of this great mighty and resilient sporting land we call both Britain and home, we have provided year after year, true World Champion in cheese rolling, competitivie ploughing, medieval football re-enactment and pram-racing.
