The Sports Pack
The sports shelf deals 38 prompts across athletes, teams, trophies, records and whole disciplines. Football, basketball and the Olympics dominate the surface; the deep water belongs to everyone else.
How to dive deeper in sports
The rarest sports answers are usually a whole sport the crowd forgot exists — a discipline, a position, a piece of equipment — rather than a more obscure player in a famous one.
Every prompt on this shelf is listed below with its full page — answers included. Study the tail of a few prompts and the shape of this category's rarity will start to feel predictable; that feeling is worth real points in the daily dive.
