Is it a requirement? Do we need to make it one? It would be sort of strange to have a space arena for it.

Me thinks the lack of gravity would sort of make most of the games kinda pointless.
Like the shotput. Everybody wins.

If held in space, the lack of gravity would probably make things rough... imagine a pole vault or long jump without gravity.
edit: Me and Az seem to have the same idea... great minds think alike.

the only thing worth watching in the olympics is track & field. the watered down basketball that they play at the olympics makes my head hurt.

Well... :crybaby: I dunno why.
Sure it's fun, but compared to the World Cup or College Football, it just doesn't grab me.

Hold the Olympics on the surface of the sun. And replace the Olympic theme with Gradius III's "Fire Scramble".

Hold olympics on Unicron on planet mode. Losers get eaten.

Think about the olympics when everyone was naked. You saw genitals flapping everywhere. I bet that was strange.

Its like, if you can go elsewhere, then you have to keep a whole different set of records/standards there.
So yeah, we can race the Klingons, but would it really be the Olympics? Not really. Still competition, but not the same.

We could have the Earth Olympics and the Universe Olympics, like in Futurama.

Yeah. That would be good. If we met aliens I know we'd want some of our sports competitions to be 'human only'...if not all of them.
