Americans have quite the penchant for taking sports and dialling them up to 11:

Rounders there is a whole theatre production with stuff for all the family for each match.

They took Rugby and have it plyed by guys in big elaborate armour and something about owls.

They take the Scottish sport of golf VERY seriously indeed.

And now they have taken the upper class sport of skeet shooting and are doing it with weather balloons and supersonic fighter jets!

Gotta hand it to them; they have the whole “go large or go home” thing down.

Apparently the whole Mars Rover program is just an extreme version of the Dakar Rally.
