total Leap Year dominance   
Rangers have just been officially declared Scotland's most succcesful club 
in Leap Years.

While the Hoops managed to win the title 6 times, facts released today show 
that The Teds have amassed a staggering 11 league championships in Leap 
Years since the start of the 20th century.

This dominance in is repeated in the national cup competition, where the 
blue half of Glasgow has celebrated 10 Leap Year Scottish Cup victories 
compared to their neighbour's paltry 8.

And as if that wasn't bad enough, statistics for Olympic years show a 
roughly similar pattern.

In another amazing coincidence, Rangers are the only club in the whole 
history of everything to have rioted at two European finals held in leap 
years, a record that looks like to hold for the rest of eternity.

They're esteemed and much loved around the world rivals have never rioted at 
a European Final, leap year or not

I need to remember this one next time I'm arguing with a Celtic fan.
