Rick Reilly - Sports from Hell: My Search for the World's Dumbest Competition

Start: 05/14/2010 7:00 pm

ESPN host and eleven-time National Sportswriter of the Year presents his latest, Sports from Hell: My Search for the World’s Dumbest Competition. The most popular sports columnist in America puts his life (and dignity) on the line in search of the most absurd sporting event on the planet. From the physically and mentally taxing sport of chess boxing to the psychological battlefield that is the rock-paper-scissors championship, to the underground world of illegal lawn-dart throwing, to several competitions that involve nudity, Reilly subjected himself to both bodily danger and abject humiliation (or, in the case of ferret legging, both).

Lettered tickets (free with book purchase) will be called alphabetically to fill seats and will also be used to form the booksigning line. Seating opens to the general public fifteen minutes before the event, so please arrive early, as space is limited.
