Dave from accounting is gonna be pole vaulting!

the Not So Special Olympics hosted by Mike Judge and David Letterman

(cue Beavis and Butthead laughs)

What about Olympics without drug restrictions? Like, how much can we improve on the human body?

I'll start watching sports when there's coked up cyborgs competing for who can stave off graft rejection for long enough to cross the finish line, thank you very much

/s but not really
We've already got the Tour de France, so that's one sport down.
Athletes already put a lot of stress on their bodies as it is, a druglympic would end up with a lot of sick or dead people
SNL had a skit on that "The All-Drug Olympics"
Don’t we already kind of have this? Can’t people have done the drugs as long as they test clean at the event?

I'm not sure it'd be "much more" entertaining. I think watching arguably the greatest athletes in the world compete in their specialty is a great spectacle and I find it odd that they are implying it's boring, but it would certainly be a lot fun to watch regardless (aside from the ridicule that sadly would occur)

It would be garbage to watch random people do these events. The only entertainment would be watching people like me almost kill themselves pole vaulting or something.
- I could see it being a whole thing where they crash course in a sport for 3-6mo or something then just get out there and play.

So... Hunger games kind of thing?

Edit: but less murdery, I suppose.

why less murdery?
- Right, give me a javelin and tell me that I can't throw it into the crowd, see what I do.
- I just laughed our loud! Hahahah thank you for that
I volunteer as tribute
- And I, my Bunny Bracelet.

Cut to 100 years later and you have litetal hunger games.

I've always like the idea that the Olympic events should have one "normal" person do them, at least for ones where that is plausible and makes sense (like racing events, maybe not stuff like the giant slalom or the ski jump)

Like, if you had a 9th swim lane and put a guy who swims 3 days a week in there for fitness, I guarantee he'd get completely smashed in a way that would really illustrate how much faster the Olympians are.

You'd have to pay that poor bastard though, most people won't want to look a fool on live tv for nothing.
- I'll do it for free if all expenses are paid for me to go to the Olympics. I look like a fool every day, one more day won't make a difference.
Did you mispell your name? This is clearly a malicious black ajah proposal.

I like the nuance of not having a total noob, but instead a amatausiast!
