I thought the Olympic games was all about unusual sports??. Who's going to sit up till 2 a.m watching Olympic fencing??.

Gooday Redwills,
Too right. Ans what about synchronised swimming, and Greco-Roman wrestling?

Gooday RedWills,
Too right. And what about Greco-Roman wrestling, which is okay if you are into slow-motion ritualistic male mating, but slightly less interesting than a politician's speech for those who are not?

Slow motion male mating has never been on my "must-watch" list I will confess....

Fencing should hardly be considered unusual. It's been in the Olympics since their revival in the early 1900s. And I certainly plan to do just that (stay up until two to watch it). Or maybe I'll just tape it.
