>2 Billion People watch field hockey

Is this a joke?

I don't know m8, you tell me, it's from oxford university, apparently.
2bf, she did say some of the answer might surprise you.

India and Pakistan are good at it

I never watched field hockey, therefore no one watches it.

Gray master race.

Yeah, so good they always lose to us and we don't even give a shit about it

why is finland, japan, ireland, poo peeland gray?

hes explaining why its popular. any sport that is popular in india is basically popular with a third of the world.

Japan, Venezuela, Cuba: Baseball

He said "India and Pakistan are good at it"

Rugby for New Zealand

which is why 2 billion people watch it. if india was shit and didnt care it wouldnt even have half of that.

>tunisia likes cricket

The fuck are you talking about?

Field Hockey is probably the most popular sport for Women and it's played in literally every continent. The video says "Played or Watched" and I'm pretty sure every school girl has to play Field Hockey.

who /English G 21/ here?

is prunella, the english speaking ghost, elite?

I have a hard time believing some of these
>Russia and Sweden not hockey
>Austria, Switzerland and Norway not skiing
>Greenland not ice fishing

>Russia and Sweden not hockey
why do you have a hard time believing this?
they play ice hockey, sure, but football is more popular, not that difficult to believe.

>Austria, Switzerland and Norway not skiing
I don't know about this one

>Greenland not ice fishing
Greenland isn't a country.

>>they always lose to us
Never met a professional athlete before.

Its disputed which is more popular in Sweden and russia, and considering sweden and Russia are far more relevant in hockey than they ever will be in soccer it is slightly hard to believe

>Alaska is Hocky

yeah no cunt, fuck off put it purple.

i'm disappointed in Finland, thought they'd like /hoc/ more

Loads of them play in tyhe NHL. Have there beenany actual finnish divegrass stars?

>Field Hockey is probably the most popular sport for Women
Oh man, you'd never know it from the faggots here.

If all of Canada's Ice Hockey players got into Field Hockey during the summer we would do well in in I think. Field Hockey is a girl's sport here though

>Its disputed which is more popular in Sweden and russia
lol no it isn't
why are you lying to yourself?

>The most popular sport in Russia is football
literally the first line in the wiki

and as far as I know, there's a region in Sweden where they only care about ice hockey, but the consensus is that the majority's favorite sport is football, ask any Swede.

Is gray, they like hockey way more than sissydive. Japan and Taiwan are also gray and like baseball the most. Philippines, it is basketball.

No it isn't. Football is literally our national sport. Our shitty league gets higher attendance than our world class hockey league, not to mention that the Swedish football team has not only a muuuuch higher attendance than our hockey team, but they also demolish them in TV ratings. Only Northerners will act like hockey's anything but a distant second and that's because all they can play in that frozen snowed down hellhole /is/ hockey.

Yeah Canada would do pretty good I think.
India/Pakistan's domination of field hockey slowly came to an end ever since artificial turf was made mandatory in international tournaments. Here only the poor folk from places like punjab and haryana play hockey and that too on local fields. They don't get to see an artificial turf until much later in their career.
Also India winning it's first World Cup in cricket was a final nail in Indian hockey.

Australia should be football. It's the most played in the country. I don't mean rugby either.

>Australia
>cric
Yeah nah fuck off cunt

it's actually dog sled

There was a map that I'll never find again, it showed the SECOND most popular sport in Europe. There were quite a few handball picks.

wtf is this map? Cricket doesn't exist in Tunisia

/hoc/ is by far biggest sport in Finland.

Southern Sweden is not really Sverige at all. It's old Denmark settled with muslim migrants.

it's true we like football more than ice hockey
ice hockey is overrated

Ireland's favorite sport is drinking

>Mongolia
>wrestling
>Gold Medals: 0

kek

>Put wrestling on there as a gag for Mongolia as some sort of odd man out
>Leave out baseball that's popular in several countries
This upsets me more than it should.

Your opinion doesn't matter. I've checked from Vova Putin and he confirmed that you now love KHL

Lads did we do good by choosing cricket over football?
I think we made the brianiac's choice, shudder to imagine following any other plebian sport.

...

>cricket
>tunisa
wat

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>Its disputed which is more popular in Sweden and russia,

I guarantee you football is the most popular sport in Russia. I did live there for 3 years.

Why the fuck are we gray
