(1,747 posts)Before we went hunting, we stopped in at a hunting store. It was HUGE, and lots of the toys and clothes were really cool, outdoorsman-style stuff.
But the customers -- good lord. I'd never SEEN so many obese people in one place. It was like a convention of people who eat only at McDonald's.
Yeah, I go to fast-food places occasionally. And the body fat percentage at the hunting shop had to be twice as high as the body fat of customers at Burger King.
I didn't kill anything, but my friend killed a small deer. We had venison for days.
And I returned to the hunting shop and bought a fishing vest, since it had all these cool pockets and pouches I could use to hold batteries and SD cards and other gear for my outdoor photography.
And again, the most out-of-shape people I've ever seen.
If you consider video gaming a sport, then I'd accept, by your definition, hunting would be a sport too. Video gaming and hunting both require less athleticism than shooting pool.
