This is a very amusing and illuminating article! Unfortunately, however, I have to fail this good article review due to sourcing concerns. The article as written is largely sourced to Bleacher Report and snopes.com; I don't consider either a reliable source. There are references to other, more reliable sources, but all they appear to be referencing is that they exist. Other elements such as the prose quality look fine, but since the article content may significantly change following the review and incorporation of citations of reliable sources, a more complete review of the sources is not possible at this time.

I would also recommend the following:

  • Add more on the response to the game in the lead.
  • Is there any explanation why the tournament organizers adopted the strange golden-goal rule?
  • The length of the article could be expanded upon as well. Review of reliable sources may provide additional content that could be integrated.
  • Check to make sure linking to that YouTube video is not linking to a copyright violation, which is not permitted.

The problem, though, is that I am not sure that there are reliable sources that cover this subject. Bleacher Report and Snopes were the best I could find. I thought that maybe Snopes was reliable because it provided references... Oh well. I will do your suggestions soon. This was my first Good Article Nomination, by the way. But it sure won't be my last. Thanks, BCS (Talk) 19:21, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
