Non-Sport/Bar Sports - Decathlon
Talking with Mr. Gatorade (aka Crazy Mike) we are coming up with ideas for a "non-sport" or "bar-sport" decathlon. If anyone has done anything like this in the past please chime in.
The event will would happen over one weekend. 5-events one day, 5 the next (typ Decathlon). What we need is further discussion of the list we have created: Table Tennis Darts Pool Foosball Skee Ball Horseshoes Bowling Shuffleboard Pinball Air Hockey Are we missing anything? Should substitute something like table-shuffleboard? Is bowling too much of a sport? Our plan is to have an actual competition, with an entry fee ($2000 range) and have the top 3 finishers make the money. Overall scoring is fairly simple: First is 1 point, second is 2 points, etc for every event. The lowest score wins. We will need a tie-breaking format, maybe Ro-Sham-Bo? This thread was not created to brag about your skills. If you are interested when we get it together, pony up the dough, and come show us. |

Skeeball seems wildly out of place here. Maybe something like bocce instead (though that's pretty close to horseshoes)? Or quarters?

Joe,
Pop-a-shot? I think bowling is too much of a sport for this list. Table shuffleboard is a pretty good idea too. |

Based on your list, I understand why beer pong is not there but it feels wrong to leave it out. Quarters is good too, in this vein.
I will destroy you all in foosball where is this taking place? -Al |

18 holes of Golden Tee [/ QUOTE ] Yeah this is a no-brainer and definitely should bump bowling or skee-ball. Classic bar game that you can find just about everywhere. |

18 holes of Golden Tee [/ QUOTE ] Adding arcade games opens a different angle. A "arcade game Decathlon" would be better focus for that. |
