At last!Unless I misread the obvious message from Torino, Washers will be a demonstration event in Italy's 2006 Olympics. My maternal grandfather (Ralph) was a big fan of the sport and it has a following here in Southern Illinois.
Other demonstration events include Cricket, LaCrosse, Tug-of-War, and Rugby. The IOC has more demos that died at their site. Why modern power boating didn't make the cut is beyond me... erm... yeah.
Or check out the real Redneck Olympics in Georgia.
