10 The Also Rans
The Lance Todd Memorial Trophy - the man of the match award for English league's Challenge Cup final is named in honour of a former rugby player from Otahuhu who ended up playing for Wigan. Very romantic, but not sure why.
The Tri-Nations Cup: The original in 1996 was so big that even Sean Fitzpatrick had trouble lifting it up. Apparently the makers got the measurements wrong.
Acapulco Tennis Open: A boring silver pear with a tennis ball stuck to it leaves just one question - why?
Hamburg Tennis Open: A big silver whirly thing that looks like a fan. Being German, it probably works.
Croatian Open tennis title: Just can't describe this one but think two-dollar shop meets giant sink waste unit. No, make that one-dollar shop.
