New Olympic Sport - Seriously?
Break Dancing is now an Olympic Sport. So now spastic contortions and spinning on your head is right up there with figure skating and other Olympic Sports. WTF is next?

Break dancing gets Olympic status to debut at Paris Games in 2024


GENEVA -- Breakdancing became an official Olympic sport on Monday.

The International Olympic Committee's pursuit of urban events to lure a younger audience saw street dance battles officially added to the medal events program at the 2024 Paris Games.

A few years ago the olympics removed wrestling starting in 2020 and then later reversed course and reinstated it. I consider wresting to be a sport....not sure what this is...
