In Response To: it's quiet in here: too quiet. (scarab)

: I saw this on reddit
: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/wy4ve/the_olympics_are_too_boring_for_me_to_watch_what/
: Loved the jousting with Rhinos idea and the sniping suggestions.

: I was watching the dressage a few days ago and found it quite graceful.

: Then I saw this in the pub tonight and though I found it strangely
: compelling... I didn't find it at all graceful.
: https://youtu.be/sysoueC-Bt8?t=1482 In fact, I found it a bit disturbing.

: So I was thinking, "how do you make this better?" and I thought of
: horses. I think that doing it on horseback is the jetpack of Olympic
: sports.

: I have found a way to double the amount of sports featured in the Olympics
: and make them better.

: For every sport that doesn't feature horses: do it on horseback.

: For every sport that is done on a horse: do it without the horse. Dressage
: becomes the ministry of silly walks. I also imagine people dressed in
: riding gear doing Fosbury-Flops over fences.

: Anyway, image the link above but with highly trained horses.

: Can you guys think of a way to improve the Olympics? A sport that YOU would
: want to see added to the list? or some way to jazz up what is already
: there?

Summer Olympics is boring. Give me the winter, where it's a bunch of people using impractical tuned devices to nearly kill themselves on ice!
