Beach Volleyball: America's Fastest-Growing Spectator Sport

Here's something I didn't know: Professional beach volleyball has become the nation's fastest-growing spectator sport.

I don't know for sure why it's the fastest-growing spectator sport in the United States, but I have a feeling that Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh, the players in the picture, are a big reason. They're Olympic gold medalists and the two most popular players on the AVP tour.

So, if you're wondering what you're going to do with yourself between the end of the NBA season and the start of the NFL season, give the AVP a try. The AVP Charleston Open is on Sunday.

Hat tip: Fark.
