Wazoo Sports Declares Bankruptcy

by @ 1:40 pm. Filed under Blue Blooded Opinions

2011 didn’t end well for one local sports network. Wazoo Sports, the network that brought you the ‘UK Pros vs. Villains’ game and replays of classic of UK games, filed for bankruptcy at the end of December.

The London-based company began online in 2005 and moved to your television sets on Insight channel 524 in 2009.

The poor response to the Villains game was likely the straw that broke the Wazoo’s back.
