STONEHENGE: A Football Stadium
Royal Society Fellows have discovered that Stonehenge was used as a Football Stadium after its deep Ditch had yielded no Coal. Ancient energy mining prospector, LORD Fellow of Woodhenge, converted its white Ditch chalk pilings into Bleachers for enthusiastic area Sport fans.
Eleven (11) Gaps between six-foot tall Banks of the discovered Eleven (11) Bleachers made for quick and easy Latrine access to the Ditch, according to Royal Society Fellows, before the six-foot deep Toilet silted in.
Football Stadium Bleachers / Latrine
LORD Fellow of Woodhenge constructed a Ticket Line area with timber posts in the Ancient sunny northeast Avenue Entrance, with Players coming and going Freely through a southern Lower Entrance. Royal Society Fellows also found that Football became popular soon afterward.
Fifty-Six (56) Fence Posts separating the Eleven (11) Bleachers full of enthusiastic Sport fans were found in a Circle around the Stadium playing area. Horizontal fence Rails prevented Crowds from storming the Field.
Stadium Field Protection Posts / Latrine in Blue
Two (2) Goals at opposite ends Perpendicular to the Rising Sun served as Fair Lighting for both Team Sides and were constructed of Four (4) Station Stones, two (2) for each Goal. "Laws of the Game" developed with Number of white Ditch pilings made by LORD Fellow of Woodhenge.
Royal Society Fellows concluded Sport fans of Eleven (11) Banks and Sport fans of Eleven (11) Bleachers must have agreed the "Laws of the Game" were a lineup of Eleven (11) Players representing them to "Foot the Ball".
Stuffed Animal Skin Ball
Today, the most prestigious International Football competition is the FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) World Cup, founded 5,000 years ago at Stonehenge. It is the most widely viewed in the World, boasting an Audience twice that of the Summer Olympic Games.
Championship Awards numbering in the Hundreds stand as a Testimony to the many Teams who competed at STONEHENGE: A Football Stadium. Abandoned due to its Success, there were too many Trophies on the Field.

Ugge - Welsh Wizards be buggered, those stones were taken from the hillside straight down to the river and from there to Milford Haven. Then, with the finest sailors from Portsmouth, up the Avon. You want proof - we won 1-0.
Talking of Portsmouth and Cardiff.....
How's this oldie from Latin classes in 1957? IIRC!!:
Pompey ad sum iam forte
Caesar [Cardiff] ad erat
Pompey sic in omnibus
Caesar sic in 'at!

OK Kev, can you spot any truth here?

I’ve just returned from visiting my mate Nick and whilst there, after a bottle or two of Olde Mother Slipton’s Skunk Sweat (well recommended for depression and reality overload) we were contacted by Ugge, a denizen of the old world. The following is a transcript, or near as my hazy brain allows of the conversation.
Ugge - Is there anyone there? One knock for no, two knocks for yes.
Us - What the **? (to much knocking over of beer cans).
Ugge - Ah, I didn’t realise there were so many of you. Well, as you all hail from Wales, are you coming to Stonehenge to support Cardiff next Saturday.
Us - What?
Ugge - Let me explain. Cardiff are fighting, sorry playing Portsmouth. The argument is that Portsmouth supplied the sailors to ship the bluestones to Stonehenge versus the Welsh supplying Merlin to fly them there. The last time this argument took place, people from an arsenal claimed they supplied the explosives that blasted the stones in the first place.
Us - (getting more confused by the second, and not just due to alcohol) What??
Ugge - It’s a very important fight, err game, for the F A(ll) Cup. Both clubs have been allocated 30,000 tickets. Now, as they regularly get gates of less than 20,000, that’s a lot of money the club directors are missing out on.
Us - What???
Ugge - Anyway, whilst you’re here I can introduce you to the missus and other members of our small hunter-gatherer clan. I could even point out the stones I helped put up. Hell, if you’re not sure of what weapons to bring to the “game,” I could even show you the carving I made of a suitable chevvy.
Us - What????
Ugge - Finally, we could all do The Ayatollah. It’ll confuse the hell out of that Yank.
Us - Goodnight Ugge.

The book-makers did well during the Winter Olympics and the ice-skating events with high stakes being bet on which desperado would survive the circuit.

probably not helped by all the wear and smoothness caused by hundreds of years of using it to roll corn..... I suspect it could get very slippery up there !

Is it true that the French Olympic Team went home with Gallic pride wounded, after their speed-cyclist came to grief on The Lintel Track due to slippery stones caused by le weather des Britons?
