1. Baseball
2. Auto Racing
3. Kickball
4. (American) Football
5. Basketball

Baseball is an overwhelming favorite in the country. An offshot, wiffleball, is pretty popular as well - about the popularity of the RL NBA. Auto Racing is incredibly popular, but not as much as baseball. Football and basketball are almost as important as kickball - but lag the incredibly enormous fanbase like baseball and racing.

One of the most popular spectator sports however is "prison population control"

There is some small interest in 'normal' sports, but the traditional tourney is still the preferred source of athletic competition. American and Traditional football are popular, as well as baseball and to a far lesser extent, bowmanship and 'Strong-Man' competitions.

Melcelene's Sports

1) Baseball
2) Speedball*
3) Volleyball

****- Speedball is a fast version of soccer where you play like normal soccer, but can use your hands to pass it (but not run with it). You can kick it, but not pick it up directly off the ground. This means that if it is in the air, you can grab it.

The Dictatorship allows any person to participate in which ever sport they would like to.

However, the sports that most people in The Dictatorship excel in are:

* Paintball battling (Melee fighting prevalent in this sport)
* Archery (target: Dante's ass)
* Beach volleyball (with real spikes)
* Helicopter jousting (note: not many live from a competetion in this sport)
* Extreme Fencing (no protection)
* Pin the tail on the donkey (the donkey is real and the pin is small, hours of humor)
* Dusk Comandos (with prisons and shotguns)
* and Beat the hell out of Inferno. (no comment, self explanitory)

The latter is the best. The others, we excel in.

All we play in Spasdom is Dodgeball. All day, every day.

However, we are looking for a good coach to import to teach us the basics of Paintball, as well as inform us on equipment to purchase and other Paintball-related things. Paintball!

>> I suppose I have truly yet to play any real sports, but your video games fascinate me. Through these marvels of programming, I have charged the beaches at Normandy, flown passenger airlines, commanded armies, and solved a thousand mysteries.

>> And that is just this morning.

>> But we were talking about sports. Although I have yet to do so physically, I have simulated many of your "sports", and found several of them quite amusing. Just the other day, I beat myself at hockey. Five to four in overtime. It was a real nail-biter of a game.

>> I also play a wicked game of chess.
