Sports tour scores

As regular readers will know Mark Grew and I are undertaking a life defining series of events - a sports tour of Coventry. So far we have made two, a rugby game and an Ice Hockey game. The good news is that the scores are in:

The scoring categories are as follows:

Refreshments
Transport
Merchandising
Quality of game
Entertaining Extras
Value for money
Springfield Factor
Fellow Spectators

Each category gives a score out of five with 5 being outstanding and 1 rubbish, we then square each score and add the results before rooting the total. The overal score could be anything from 7 ish to 13 ish.

The final scores are:

Rugby 8.774964387
Ice Hockey 10.44030651

So this means that the Rugby scored poorly and the hockey well.

The "British Razzel Dazzel" helped the hockey score highly, as did the bloke who shouted "When you were born the doctor gave your mum a smack" to the sin binned Belfast Giants player. Teh large inflatable men helped the rubgy but this was ofset by the 11 hour bus journey to cover 7 meters to get to the stadium - otherwise known as "park and crawl".
