Happy Birthday, ZZBottom!

I hope it's a year of health and happiness, all around.

Bizarre sport of the day: virtual cockfighting.

Yup. People dress up in rooster costumes with sensors, and their motions are mapped to a virtual cockfight between simulated roosters on screen. For tradition's sake, it's held in a basement, though women are allowed to attend (and fight).

Costumes AND roosters, not to mention technology.... (full story here)

Between this and the wife-carrying races, I'm expecting to see some variation of dwarf-tossing any day now...
