Posted by Ilya Somin: The Top 10 Ig Nobel Prizes of All Time: http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_02_22-2009_02_28.shtml#1235543821
Popular Mechanics has [1]compiled its list of the Top 10 Ig Nobel Prizes of all time (HT: [2]Instapundit). My personal favorite is Australian lawyer John Keough's award for obtaining an Australian government patent for reinventing the wheel (relabeled as a "circular transportation facilitation device" on his patent application).
