Holy shit, that's about the funniest thing I've seen this year, and it's 2019 fer chrissakes! Thought I was going to fall out of my chair.Motorcycle chariot racing.
A Russian drinking game involving a tazer, I bet Boris does this:
Those Crazy Russians!
Just heard on the radio that break dancing will be trialled as an Olympic sport in the 2024 games.
Any more ideas for grotesquely un-olympian Olympic sports, please post here!
Added to which, it's stretching the traditional definition of "sport" a bit.Owing to the global diversity in food and eating habits I don't think it would be feasible to set up a fair international competition in:
- Cooking or cooking-related abilities
- Competitive eating
I'd get rid of all Olympic sports that involve judging – gymnastics, surfing, rhythmic gymnastics, synchronised swimming etc. The results should be measurable: as in faster, higher stronger. While not a big fan of golf and tennis at the Olympics – as with road cycling (the Tour de France is much more important than the Olympic road race) these have monumental championships in their own sports – they at least aren't subjective.Just heard on the radio that break dancing will be trialled as an Olympic sport in the 2024 games.

Florida man retrieves golf ball that landed on alligator's tail
A Florida golfer was caught on camera retrieving his ball from a particularly dangerous hazard -- the tail of an alligator.
Kyle Downes said he and his brother were at the Coral Oaks Golf Course in Cape Coral on Sunday when a ball landed on the gator's tail. ...
Downes shared video showing his brother sneaking up on the alligator to grab the ball off its tail.
The player quickly grabs the ball and the alligator, apparently startled, darts into the water. ...
(In a whispered announcer's voice ... )
"Oh, my ... Kenny's dropped his second shot short of the water hazard, but left himself stuck on the even more ominous gator hazard."
