This past weekend saw the 5th annual Rock Paper Scissors World Championship. 5th! World Championship?! Christ, how bad is humanity that we have a championship for a dumb game like RPS? The worst part is that RPS has been around since the 1800′s. Of course, it started in England. So that tells you all you need to know.
From Yahoo News:
Think rock, paper, scissors is a children’s game? Think again. Top players from around the globe will gather in Toronto this weekend to compete for a C$10,000 ($8,840) prize and the title of world champion. More than 500 contestants, including national champions from Australia, Norway and New Zealand, are expected to attend.

Bob Cooper, a 28-year old sales manager from London, UK, won the World Rock Paper Championship, hosted by the World Rock Paper Scissors (RPS) Society, last night in Toronto.
