And they're trying to get there, and that was part of why they... I don't think that matters.

I think you can have, like...

the most ridiculous sport ever that could only be played in one tiny town in an island off the coast of Papua New Guinea.

Papua New Guinea is an island though.

Yeah, it is.

An island off the coast of an island.

Good example there.

An inlet maybe would we call it.

I don't think it matters if the sport has global appeal or not.

It's the storytelling.

No, it's true.

And if you look at the tennis, I mean, that's a global sport.

Travels all over the world, competitions all over the place, and that failed as well.

So...

Yeah, it's interesting.
