Four Very Unique Sports Are One Step Closer To Joining The Olympics In 2024

On Wednesday, March 27th, the International Olympic Committee officially recommended four new sports be added to the Paris Olympics in 2024, delighting followers of those four events!


The Olympic Committee recommended that surfing, skateboarding, climbing, and breaking (break dancing) should all be added.

Some suggestions were more serious than others.



Well, like it or not, breaking is well on its way to becoming an olympic sport. If you tune into the events in 2024, you might just see this:
