Scutter01's Inquisition - #5 The Olympics

What Olympic sports would you like to see in the future?


My choices:

  • Ski-boxing. Competitors must ski cross-country, stopping periodically to box their opponents. Competitors are not permitted to remove skis or boxing gloves during the competition.
  • Red Rover. "Red rover, red rover, let Jamaica come over!"
  • Javelin catching. Points awarded for style, distance, and most blood still remaining in the body.

IPSC style shooting.

How cool would it be to have an Olympic team held hostage, freed by another Olympic team?

Not necessarily a new sport, but I would like to see three new events added to swimming: a)add crocodiles in the pool; b) add sharks to the pool; c) add piranhas to the pool.

To the track, I would add raging bulls.

To the uneven bars, I would add monkeys.

Bring BACK Pistol Dueling. Yes, I said bring it BACK (as in it was in the Olympics before).

As for combined sports, I liked Conan O'Brien's combination speed skating and luge, called........ Spooge.

Except for maybe Russia.

Exactly. Hell some of those open class guns don't even look like guns. That should please some of the ultra-liberal european PC cry babies. It has more to do with the classic idea of the Olympics (things that make for a good warrior) than diving and trampoline.

I would also add maybe an NRA high power style long range shooting competition too.

According to wiki:
Quote:
In antiquity normally only young men could participate.[12] The sportsmen usually competed nude. This was due in part to the weather and also because the festival was meant to be a celebration of the achievements of the human body.
I'd be ok with bringing that tradition back. I'd be willing to compromise and allow women to compete, too.
