hardcover. 1. Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness and disregard of all the rules George Orwell The public have an insatiable curiosity to know everything except what is worth knowing Oscar Wilde Will Fotheringham scoured the globe for this tsunami of trivia drawn from every sport known to humankind, and a few more besides. Subjects include how to conduct a bullfight, Hollywood's badminton range in the 1930s the holes of St. Andrew's golf course, why the Olympic flag has five rings, and much more. Fotheringham's Sporting Trivia contains more fun facts than anyone should be allowed to know. For example, did you know that the origins of love (no score) in tennis is thought to have come from the French word loeuf meaning egg which is the same shape as the oval zero? And where does the Nike swoosh logo come from? Well, it was devised by University of Oregon student Carolyn Davidsons in 1964. She was originally paid U.S$35 for the logo by company founder Phil Knight. Good condition, tanning.
