Sports For Sacrifice
Are you a bad sport? Hate losing? Well then, be thankful that you’re living in this century. The ancient Mesoamerican populations played a game called “pok ta pok”. And guess what the losers had to do – well, nothing really. The winners would behead them and then sacrifice them. Sometimes the heads of the losers would even be used for another round instead of a ball. These games combined modern-day soccer and basketball, the rules only differed a little… apparently. More than 1,300 (actual) balls have been found.
