I can’t help being interested in people who engage in pointless or futile activities. There are so many of them out there, though, that sometimes I miss them.
Luckily, these lunatics didn’t slip under my radar. Check out their website and listen to ‘The Star Spangled Banner’.
Is there more out there that I should know about?
The Star Spangled Banner by the Shouting Men just ROCKS! Awsome like a fight song, more than an anthem. I can see highschools copying this kind of thing all over the place soon. I like it! 
Cheese rolling is boring.

But what is this cricket to which you refer? The whole things is completely incomprehensible to me.
This is a “pretty pointless and futile activity” but quite amusing. Bloke with too much free time on his hands decides to make a million dollars in fake (you’ll see why) counterfeit bills just to see how much space a mill would take up.
