You all are forgetting the most important sports reference in a Weird Al song--pod racing! :)



"I've heard how fast his pod can go

And we were broke, it's true

So we made a wager or two

He was a prepubescent flyin' ace

And the minute Jabba started off that race

Well, I knew who would win first place

Oh yes, it was our boy"



Al also mentioned NASCAR racing in Couch Potato. I guess it depends on your definition of sports, too. Some people even consider chess to be a sport (it's officially recognized by the International Olympics Commitee as a sport!), but it's true that Al doesn't mention sports of any type a lot. I never really noticed before!
