I, personally, have a tape of some of the World Games at Belahusten (sp?)
Park in Glasgow from 1991, although it is a home video and not exactly
the quality you are looking for:) The band I used to play in (Midlothian
Scottish, if you're into the stuff) played in the competition.  I don't
recall seeing anyone filming the games at all and have never heard of any 
video footage available. I do frequent many of these games as a competitor 
and have never seen anyone filming them for commercial purposes. Sorry, 
bout that...


But on the bright side, there are many competitions coming up, if you can
make it to the Onterio (I think area) there are at least 5-10 games held
there over the spring and summer months.

If you are interested I can get a schedule for you...just let me know...:)
