OK, since the world cup has begun and everything....
Whats the best fantasy sport ever?
Given that the quidditch match was the only really good part of the HP movie, and the irish are the world champs in that sport at least, this should throw up a few interesting answers...

Fantasy sport.....hmmm. I don't think I can remember any from books, except for jousting and stuff, but if it can be from a video game, then I would have to say Chocobo racing from Final Fantasy VII.

Is there anything else but Quidditch? I don't mean I like it, I've never read Harry Potter but I mean is there any other possible answer? I can't think of a single fantasy story that has an original sport in it except for that. But I haven't read tonnes or anything.

There is that sport from Goodkind's SoT books; don't have time to look it up now, but it seemed like a takeoff of rugby.

I don't mean to be overly nit picking (I do realy buts its not polite to say) but Quiddich is a terrible game. I mean just think about it twelve people on the feild can spend hours working there guts out doing things of incredibe skill but at the end none of that matters. It comes down to who catches the golden ball the rest is just a complete waste of time.
I think the most played Fantasy game in fantasy storys is Chess with a close second being Polo with your enemy's head.
I am not sure witch I prefer, chess is so violent.
