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

Fed up talking videogames? Why?

World's strongest man competition would be awesome. Lorry towing, tyre flipping, the giant stone ball lifting. Is that still on TV?

Airsoft.

its been the fastest growing sport in the uk for the last 3 or so years, although you wouldn't know due to the fact it uses realistic imitation firearms.

huge sport in Ireland and the UK, France, Spain, Germany, Poland, Japan, Philipines, Canada and the U.S that i know of.

easy to origanise into team events, or singles.

needs to be done.

only problem i can see with it is that it would be easy to cheat and just bring a team of ex, or current military dudes as your countries team, that would have to be regulated somehow.

The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them in parliament.

I don't think different countries shooting at each other with realistic looking firearms is the message the Olympics is trying to put across.

Always loved the name Airsoft, so obviously a massive PR move to try and hide the fact its people shooting each other.

Cross country pub crawling. Choose a route between A and B and you have to visit every pub en-route. Competitors can choose their own drinks, only stipulation is that it is alcoholic. Competitors who choose spirits will have the speed advantage but will pay the penalty if it is a long course as they will probably end up drunker and may get lost en route. They may also fall into the trap of ordering shots in the closing stages. This is not the marathon so pissing in the street will mean instant disqualification. Same with vomiting.

Hopefully this event will be part of the Olympics in time for Scottish independence. Stuck on Gold for the Scots.

They should add a 'giving a backy' race to the cycling events. On Grifters.

I called off his players' names as they came marching up the steps behind him....All nice guys. They'll finish last. Nice guys. Finish last.
