Living With Insects In Sports (Photoshop Edition)

Posted on January 25, 2012 by

As I posted on Monday, Insects are unpopular in the world of tennis. Is tennis unpopular in the world of insects? Not according to the humor site, SomethingAwful. Several years ago, SomethingAwful posted a PhotoshopPhriday that featured photoshopped features of insects engaging in a variety of sports titled, “Wide World of Insect Sports“. Among the entires was this image of two grasshoppers playing tennis with an ant as tennis ball. Definitely, an awful fantasy for an ant.
