Idaho Robbed Of Chance To Win Olympic Breakdancing Gold In 2028

Now that the Olympic games have ended, many of the lesser-known athletes who won medals will be forever immortal in sports history. One interesting athlete from Australia who somehow managed to qualify for the games in the "sport" of breakdancing nicknamed "Raygun" has also achieved worldwide fame, showing that anyone can make a name for themselves if given the right opportunity.

There have got to be so many young Americans who are now heartbroken that they won't get the opportunity to bring home to their state a medal in breaking.

I watched a lot of the Olympics over the past couple of weeks. According to the official tally, the United States dominated all other countries winning 126 medals, which was 35 more than the second-leading People's Republic of China. The biggest surprise of the games, in my opinion, was the breakdancing competition.

If you didn't catch any of the Olympic men's or women's breakdancing, you really missed out. I found it to be thoroughly entertaining. I had no idea that there were more than 120 moves in breakdancing, and many of them were on full display in Paris. "Raygun" managed to score zero points during her bizarre battles, which is the only thing most people will remember about the event.

Sadly, it's been announced that "breaking" will not be part of the 2028 Olympic games in Los Angeles. which truly sucks. Why bring the competition into the Olympics for one year? There have got to be so many young Americans who are now heartbroken that they won't get the opportunity to bring home to their state a medal in breaking.

This new development also means that no Idahoan will have the chance to bring a breakdancing gold medal to the Gem State. Two sports I think there might be a lot of Idahoans that could easily medal in are shooting and archery. Four years is plenty of time to train.
