r/dirtysportshistory
Founded July 2022 · Public — anyone can post
If you enjoy the dark side of sports history then welcome home, as we prod at the underbelly of its rotting carcass. We consider history to be older than 20 years, so keep that in mind when contributing. All our original content is intended to unearth peculiar, notorious, vile, comical, or foolhardy moments from beneath the surface of our sporting memories. Sources are cross referenced multiple times to ensure accuracy as some tales are simply too good to be true. Join us.

r/dirtysportshistory — frequently asked
How many members does r/dirtysportshistory have?
r/dirtysportshistory has 26,388 members as of our most recent crawl on Sep 23. Prowlo re-checks tracked communities on a rolling schedule, so this figure moves rather than sitting frozen at whatever it was when a scraper last ran.
Is r/dirtysportshistory growing?
We don't have 30 days of snapshot history for r/dirtysportshistory yet, so we're not going to invent a growth number. We've been tracking it since Sep 23; the chart fills in as history accumulates.
How active is r/dirtysportshistory?
Around 0.3 posts per day, measured from the newest 100 posts on Reddit, which span 366.4 days. Posting rate matters more than subscriber count when you're deciding where to spend your time — it determines how long your comment stays visible.
When was r/dirtysportshistory created?
r/dirtysportshistory was founded in July 2022 and is a public — anyone can post community. Age matters: an older community with steady growth has survived Reddit's moderation churn; a young one with a spike may not.
Who posts in r/dirtysportshistory?
Of the last 100 posts we sampled, 24% came from distinct accounts; the newest was published Sep 20. A low share means a feed dominated by a handful of accounts (bots, mods, or one prolific poster) rather than a community.
Can I promote my product in r/dirtysportshistory?
We don't have a promo-tolerance read for r/dirtysportshistory yet. Default to the safe approach: read the sidebar rules, contribute in threads where you gain nothing, and mention your product only when it is the honest answer to someone's question.
How do I monitor r/dirtysportshistory for mentions?
Hit Watch on this page. Prowlo starts crawling r/dirtysportshistory into your Dataset — every new post indexed and embedded, searchable semantically, queryable by your AI agent over MCP, and able to trigger keyword alerts in Slack. Prowlo is read-only; it never posts on your behalf.
Can my AI agent read r/dirtysportshistory's stats?
Yes. Everything on this page is one MCP tool call away: catalog_get_subreddit returns r/dirtysportshistory's members, growth, promo tolerance and similar communities as typed JSON — free, no credits. Connect your agent to api.prowlo.com/mcp and it can vet the community and start watching it in the same conversation.
