If you could add a sport to the Olympics what would it be?

Going back to the second post of the entire topic but Ultimate Frisbee would be awesome.

If not that, then Wii Tennis.

Lego Grand Theft Auto... You KNOW you would buy it.

Ultimate Frisbee sounds like a sport for people who don't like sports.

I'd add that old Mesoamerican game that's a bit like BSG's Pyramid:

Darts would probably be the last sport I'd want added to the Olympics.

An Olympics sport where being overweight and able to hold your drink are of benefit would feel so wrong.


thats an angry and overly steriotypical view of a Darts player.

the precision, accuracy and mental strength to keep on hitting those double 20's...

WWE needs to be there.

Mixed Martial Arts would be an interesting one. Whether feasible or not is another thing.

I'd add a lucky dip. Athletes selected at random to swap sports with each other. Distance runners lifting weights. Cyclists doing rhythmic gymnastics. Boxers playing table tennis. Discuss throwers doing the hurdles... :lol:

I would have a separate space in each event for one lucky untrained member of the public to compete to see how much better than the rest of society the olympians really are. Like, my mate Steve from work doing the 100m next to Usain Bolt. Kind of like a control group.
