Pretty sure that if you lost, you got sacrificed to the gods. Good incentive to really push the players for a good game. These days pro team games is just watching a bunch of millionaires refusing to sweat

In high school back 30+ years ago I was taught that they weren't sure if it was the winners or the losers who were sacrificed. It seems and odd thing not to know if you know that someone was sacrificed.

It's not even clear that ANYONE was sacrificed. There is apparently only one depiction in history that SUGGESTS that one time prisoners were forced to play a rigged ball game and were sacrificed at the end.

This is a game we don't even know the real rules for

For the gods I throw these cheeks! 🍑

Is it from the cheeks that the ramen comes out? What shade of brown is it?

Is blood red a shade of brown?

When it's stale it is, quite dark brown.

Being sacrificed so Chaak could bring us some rains never felt so stylish
