With overwhelming support from fans across the globe, the International Olympic Committee has voted today to allow a new exhibition sport to the 2012 Summer Games in London.
Spokesperson for the IOC said, "We are really excited about this new competition. Our synchronized sports have become very popular and we look forward to expanding this genre. Athletes will be judged on criteria such as distance and style. We already have plans for different classes which include water, tobacco, and the ever popular watermelon seeds, to name just a few."
The US Olympic Committee commented that they have already been in contact with players from Major League Baseball and old tyme saloon patrons as potential members for their 2012 team.
