I can't help it but I always chuckle when the big fights end after a couple of minutes and think of the folks who spent thousands to watch it.

Rarely over that quick

I went to see Tyson fight in Altantic City in 1990 and it was literally over before I got to my seat.

My memories of golf tournaments involve a horrendous headache, a wasp sting that left a lump in the back of my neck and a trip to hospital, I hate golf. My favourite memory is for some reason deciding I was going to get the autograph of a golfer called Neil Coles as many times as possible at a poxy tournament I was dragged along to. Think my folks got the message that day. Ten I think it was in the end.

The FA Cup final this year is way bigger than the Word Cup final.

That's why there's such a scrabble for tickets

Kids aren't allowed at boxing

Which, even if it were true, has exactly what to do with the price of fish?
They aren't  at professional registered cards.

I must have imagined the ones I've seen then.
Things have moved on a tad since you were a kid   ;)
