If you're looking for a sporting event with a bit of a difference, consider one of the upcoming tournaments of the PFL - the Pillow Fight League. This pillow pugilism is exactly what you'd expect - 22 competitors lining up to do battle one-on-one with each other using nothing more than a pillow.
The first live event will be in New York on Jan 19. If you're not in the area, there are a few videos on beer.com. And, of course, YouTube.
