The Mitten Toss

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

No indication of notability, contains the phrase "sport of growing popularity". Players are called tossers. Only outside reference doesn't mention the game at all. WP:HOAX? WP:NFT? Richfife 01:12, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete based on the deletion log for "Mitten toss.". Google strongly suggests that this sport is played by no more than a handful of fraternities in the midwest, and apparently other editors have noticed this on several occasions.  --Hyperbole 01:54, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete but not speedy. Speedy declined because G4 only applies to items deleted via XfD & this has not yet been. I suggest that it any case it would be better to delete it here at AfD in a more definitive way. After that, then it can be deleted by speedy when someone is foolish enough to try to put it back.

 * Delete - Recreation of non notable sport article, can't see any reasonable reason for someone calling a ball 'mitten' either. -  Ca ri bb e a  n ~ H. Q.  03:58, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete view - certainly has the feel of a hoax to me but, in any case, lacks the necessary sources to establish notability. Bridgeplayer 03:59, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Without sourcing, either a hoax or not notable. Maxamegalon2000 05:04, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
