Bob, his mother's popular because (answer in paragraphs).
Actually, Nikki, hockey is a game that evolved. They have found hieroglyphs in Egypt of two people with a stick and ball-like object playing a game that's similar to floor/ground/sand hockey. The british started playing a game with a stick and any object (including human waste) on ice when they landed here in the Maritimes provinces. And the first recognized hockey game was in Montreal, organized by a man by the name of James Creighton.
LOL Obviously, you just wasted your money. Buy Hockey: A People's History and you will see how wrong you are. Hockey being "founded..."

Well I am not so sure it isn't.
Hockey is a world sport and like soccer has only been offered as a sport for about 15 years in the US.
Basketball, football, and baseball were always taught in gym glass and offered as extra curricular events.
Hockey is just not as established as those sports.....the system is changing tho.
