It's been great to see how well attended these events have been...rarely have I tuned into a niche sport and the crowd was empty

People showed up for this Olympics...I hope the US doesn't stifle attendance of the WC & 28 Olympics with their visa rules

The females competition finals had japanese ref and japanese participant. Ref gave japanese girl all three point. That tells you the legitimacy of this competition. It won't last in Olympics for too long.

Won't be back in LA

PARIS — Snoop Dogg isn’t the only one looking forward to breaking’s debut at the Olympics this year. Unfortunately for the darling of the Paris Games, he won’t get to see the sport in 2028 when the Summer Games land in Los Angeles, his home city.

The inclusion of sports such as breaking are part of a flexible process to align with the goals of each host city’s organizing committee, which “proposes events that it feels are fit their vision for their specific edition of the Games,” an IOC spokesman said in an email.

Instead, Los Angeles selected cricket, flag football, lacrosse, squash and baseball/softball. In addition to breaking, karate, motorsport and kickboxing were rejected.

Threw breakdancing in the bushes before the event even finished. :dead:



:laff:

We need to hit everything to stay ahead of China:
- Soccer
- Men's Basketball
- both 4x400m relays
- maybe 100m hurdles or Hoppel in the 800m?
