Backyard Empire by Alex Hutchinson is based on a true story of life imitating sports entertainment with some gruesome outcomes. Opponents to the underground activity fear that young kids will be severly hurt or killed if its popularity continues to increase. According to the author "It's a fad that's not fizzling out anytime soon." However the author does not blame kids for their after school activities. "If parents ignore their teenagers long enough those kids will do anything to recapture their parents attention, no matter how bad it hurts." He also contends that backyard wrestling is not the most dangerous thing they could be doing, "Ten kids die every year playing high school football and yet in ten years of backyard wrestling not one single kid has died. The WWE is misinforming people to save their hide from lawsuits, it has nothing to do with the actual level of danger." Book Description: Jason would do anything to turn his misfit group of backyard wrestlers into a profitable Independent federation. The local police try to stop his extreme storylines but the real danger was the stunts that took place in the ring. Shattered elbows, facial burns and even a car accident present the group with expensive injuries but it’s not enough to stop them. Will the Extreme Backyard Alliance make itself nationally known or will someone have to die in the ring before this madness has ended?
