It was first played n 1850 by British soldiers stationed in Canada and quickly became popular among Canadians

Ice Hockey History. Historical Facts About Hockey.

So if British people play proper sports, then by your logic hockey certainly fits the bill!

Well obviously British soldiers used to play it. Now it's a girls game. They stopped playing it cos it wasn't violent enough.
I do like watching ice hockey btw

To answer your question properly there is a British Ice Hockey league but it's not really hugely popular due to the fact that Ice Hockey hardly has any history in the UK and very few players in it are from Britain.

Not surprising that Obama is better, especially if you're going to treat elections like 'showbiz bonanzas' but the flip side of the coin gave us Ronald Regan and isn't Arnie thinking about the big job one day?

Take it from an American, I don't see others dressed like that often.

I think you're suffering from confirmation bias.

So how often do you get to see American tourists visiting overseas?

Do they dress differently when traveling overseas or something? Americans travel far more within the country than outside it I'm betting.
