The most boring sport
I'm just back at my desk, aghast at a few folks watching a snooker game on TV. I can't really differentiate between the various cue sports. So I'll assume it was a snooker game. Maybe it's just me, but I can't figure out what's so interesting about watching a cue sport.
What're the other games/sports that you can't bear to watch on a TV or as a spectator at the venue - for any sort of reason? I'd pick cue sports, chess, golf, equestrian, rowing [all of them boring] and WWE/WWF (professional wrestling) [gross].
What about you?

Have you ever played pool - snooker/billards? It's lot of fun, may be not to watch but to play and, like most sports, it is not so easy as it looks.

I love watching pool.. Especially the World Pool Championships.. Snooker is a little more boring.. But I can still watch it..
I find golf horribly boring to watch..
ganesh: It's very high up on my list. I always change to a different channel when there's WWE on.
chandra: Maybe once or twice, and I've ended up nearly damaging the table :) I'm not claiming these boring sports are easy to play. They certainly aren't. In fact they may even be fun to play. I love playing chess. But they're terrible spectator sports.
ankur: Yeah. Golf's too ridiculous!
