Break Dancing

[Canary42]

I see that Break Dancing is to be introduced as a competitive sport in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

While I think it can look impressive, I hardly see it as a competitive sport.

bhg, much as they say that dogs are judged against a standard, its still the same.

the Olympics haven't been the same since they dropped cricket. There was only the once, 1900 in Paris, 12 a side, and only one match, in which England beat France. The French team were England expats. The England team were the Devon and Somerset Wanderers, who were on a short French tour.

I'm surprised to see painting was an Olympic event up to 1948.

Also town planning.
