Hearing One Way Ticket -- The Darkness
Here it is: Chessboxing! All the raw intellect of boxing! All the physical violence of chess!
Oh, wait. Reverse those. There we go.
Man, I can't even get through this whole article without giggling madly. I love the idea of this sport insensibly. I hope it becomes huuuuuuuge, because I want to live in a world where this is an Olympic sport.
Even saying the word makes me laugh. Chessboxing! Bwa hah hah hah hah ha!

One of the Wu Tang Clan's better songs is "Da Mystery Of Da Chessboxing."
"Raw... I give it to ya, with no trivia, like cocaine straight from Bolivia... my hip-hop will rock and shock the nation, like the Emancapation Proclamation."
