Interesting and perplexing example under "real life" that just seems, well, odd.

In the world of Professional Gaming, there is Daigo Umehara's victory over Justin Wong in Street Fighter III: Third Strike at EVO 2004. Playing as Ken, Umehara was on the ropes against Wong's Chun-Li. When Wong fired off Chun-Li's 15-hit super attack, Umehara successfully parried every hit note before following up with his own game-winning super attack, immortalizing him in fighting game history as "The Beast".

Does being very good at playing computer games actually count as a "sport"? (This is more of a "recreation?")
