    Break Dancing (Breaking) the new Olympic Sport in Paris 2024.

    It's been announced the Breaking with be classed as a sport in 2024 Paris Olympics. Wonder how the team uniforms will look with base ball caps and baggy clothes and basket ball boots.

    I think they should also include hopscotch and the maypole.

    Wonder why I never bother watching the olympics any more.

    Which sport is immune from performance enhancing supplements?

    Marbles, I believe Saitch is out resident expert on this subject.
    Should marbles ever be included in the Olympics, in the age old tradition of employing burnt out champions as commentators, Steve should get the first call.

    I have to admit that, as I was sponsored by Castlemain Perkins, I did partake in some performance enhancing liquids.

    Ah! the good 'ol traditional, and historic, sport of breakdancing .. good to see this 2000+ year old artform, first practised by the Greek philosopher Mihali Zackinopolouson, finally making it's comeback.
    I think its origins stem from some traditional dancing scare tactics practised to ward off the enemy .. or maybe it was the doctor coming with the enema(a bit of confusion and controversy among the Greek community there).
    Anyhow, I remember my great great grandfather telling me stories of his youth spent practising the art, before it got mangled into what we now know as the zorba!
    ... Malaka Zorba, apparently he was in a comp doing breaking, and suddenly stood up to do it, and the rest became history.

    about time it made it back into the fold.

    All these discos are giving me a heart attack!

    I've always wanted hacky sack to be part of the olympics. Its way more interesting than half the sports

    Born out of competition, breaking is a natural for the Olympics — The Undefeated

    the 3 legged race , the sack race and egg on the spoon race would be nice if they could include it.

    with the break comps will the TV commentators talk in jibe or english? or need a translator Jibe to english.

    We could ask for "chewing gum" chewing but it would be unfair as the US would always take the gold.
