    This rugby interview is one of the best sports interviews I’ve seen, as it keeps getting delightfully weirder as it goes on.pic.twitter.com/6ua2P5FxET

        For the record, I think this is my favorite bizarre sports interview, which was done with Naoyuki Oi, a Japanese pool player who didn't let the language barrier get in the way of his post-victory interview.pic.twitter.com/815JvNWIXO
