With the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia upon us I thought it might be interesting to investigate what the latest crop of additions to the list of Olympic sporting events looked like. Apparently there are twelve new events to take in this year. None of them come close to my idea of an Olympic sport.

Here are a few of those events. Men's and Women's 'Ski Halfpipe.'

























Women's 'Ski Jumping.'











 

























For a complete list visit this site. Don't get me wrong, these are world-class athletes at the top of their game. They're accomplishing something that only a handful of people throughout the world get to. These new events are all worthy additions. But, where is the beer guzzling competition? Where's the parallel-parking-on-ice event? What are some events that you think should be considered an Olympic sport? Call the show at 764-ROCK or tell us on Facebook.
