Reject Olympics

   Just saw this on another forum and thought it was decent:

 I propose these sports be the Reject Olympics ("The Uninvited, Unincluded, Unimportant, Unathletic, Immoral, Illegal, and Just Plain Stupid."):

Tag, four-square, breakdancing, unicycling, tricycling, eating, kickball, noodling, flugtag (designed by amateurs! built by volunteers! piloted by the incredibly brave!), croquet, paintball, darts, hide-and-go-seek, screaming (measured by loudness and angst), Marco Polo, bumper cars (please...keep all hands and feet in the vehicles at all times), bathtub sailing, and staring. Track and field shall consist of sausage racing (a la Milwaukee Brewers) and throwing (from balls, discs and Frisbees to cowchips--100% organic--and cell phones).

I'll propose two other sports to the Reject Olympics you've never heard of. First, Hookie, invented by my sister and I. This activity (also known as Tae-Kwan-D'oh) might be the dumbest sport ever devised. Opponents hook their legs together while facing in opposite directions. Then, hop in circles while jerking on your opponent's leg (no hands allowed), until someone falls down and Mom yells at you.

Then, wallball, a PS 19 classic. Several opponents, one-on-one-on-one-on-one-on-one. One player throws a ball against the wall, and someone else fields it. If they field it cleanly, then the "play" is over; if not, the must run and touch the wall. If an opponent gets the ball and throws it at them (and hits them) before they make it, that player gets an out. That continues until someone has the ball firmly in their grasp. Three outs knock you out of competition. Continue play until one player is left. An awesome game, honestly.
