Well you never did see what was in it, but Jules did mention it (he could have been lying based upon the situation he was in at the time!).

Just to jog peoples memories:

Gunman: "Sounds like a sh*t job"

Jules: "Funny, I was thinking the same thing myself."

True. And it's not long enough a "reign" either.

It is a country that held the title, though the country was represented by a single club the whole of the reign. And the reign was over 100 years.

Is the sport still played today?

America's Cup... 1840s to..... 1983?

Linebreaker wrote:America's Cup... 1840s to..... 1983?

I would have guessed that as well.

I remember the day well...

Actually it was 1857 to 1983 - 126 years.

Well done LB. The USA (New York Yacht club) held the America's Cup (the world's oldest sporting trophy) from 1851 when the schooner America won it in a race around the Isle of Wight until 1983 when Australia won it off them. More recently Switzerland (with their poached kiwi crew) had to host their title defences in Valencia since they don't have a sea-coast.

That one jumped out at me for some reason...

I'm off to sleep now guys.
