In the category of 'Whatever will they think of next' is a sport called chess boxing.
The sport call for alternating 6 rounds of 4 minutes worth of chess with 5 rounds of 3 minutes worth of boxing.
The concept for this sport can be directly traced to a science fiction comic book entitled 'Froid Equateur' and the 1st Chessboxing World Championship was held in 2003.
I have not, and will not, consider playing this sport.
