This Beats the Packers Game

Watching the anemic Pack losing to the Lions is frustrating. So I stumbled upon this sports story:

In Sport, it is usually a case of you like what you’re good at. In that case the playing fields of Scotland will soon be rumbling with the heavy footfalls of pachyderms.

The nation’s dismal sporting record has been lifted with the news that we have won a World Cup - in elephant polo.

The national team, captained by the Duke of Argyll, won the Elephant Polo World Championship in Nepal.

They fought off stiff competition to triumph in the final against the local hot favourites.


Who knew? I bet many Scots didn't. Where does the team practice? Do they go to the Glasgow Zoo and ask them if they can work out in the elephant pen for a few hours?
