    zephir,

    You can probably assume that the medieval tourney is popular in Greyhawk, since its a very western eurpean setting. Jousting, Melees, and other tests of skill.


    BTW, one of our users has submitted an article on the "Battle Right of Fitness", a very particular form of sporting contest in the World of Greyhawk that I think might interest a group of PCs....

    It should be up by next week.

    the mention of rugby caught my eye. i had that once in my campaign, and the city of greyhawk with its multiple institutions is the perfect place to have 'collegit sports'. the Arena is much underused in my opinion and organized collegit sports would be a good hook to get those dumb fighter types to 'go to school' as it were.

    I think the Sea Princes should sponsor a synchronized swim team.

    Entertaining!

    Well, my poor Colts (and Packers) may be out of it again this year, but at least I know I can live vicariously through the Roland Hellhounds. Smile
