You have read many stories here, legendary stories, violent stories, and much more. But today we will cover something a little more lighthearted. Here are 4 of the more “stupid” rules in sports:

The Infamous Cleavage Rule:

You can lose a chess match if you show too much cleavage. The judges can come and make a decision about how much cleavage is distracting your opponent.

No Lefties in Polo:

In Polo there is a rule that dictates that players must hold their mallet in their right hands. This is due to the fact that when a right-handed player approaches the ball as a left-handed player approaches the opposite way, it creates a jousting-like situation that wasn’t safe for anyone – not that running around with heavy wooden sticks is safe for anyone either.

In tennis, if a player’s hat accidentally falls off or a ball falls out of a pocket, then the point is replayed, as the distraction is considered a hindrance. (This is the same rule that Serena Williams was busted on during the 2011 U.S.

Don’t Celebrate too Much:

In football, If this celebration is deemed excessive by the referee, the player is given a yellow card. This seems absurd, as scoring goals is what football is all about and players will always celebrate wildly. “Excessive celebrating” includes shushing the crowd and taking off your shirt after scoring, which is an automatic yellow.
