Before this global sporting event, we started thinking about sports that didn’t exist any more and sports that were maybe a little strange. Read the following ones that have ever been included in the past Olympic Games.Live Pigeon Shooting (1900)This bloody event was only held once, at the 1900 Paris Games. Nearly 300 birds were killed during the competition, leaving a crime scene of feathers and blood. This is the only event in Olympic history that involved killing live animals.Kabaddi (1936)This sport is popular in South Asia. The object is for one member of a team to enter the other side’s half of the field, and score points.

Only Schmal and one other finished.Tug of War (1900—1920)This may seem like a basic PE class sport more than an Olympic event, but Tug of War was actually one of the first sports played at the Olympic games in 500 BC. There are two teams of eight; the winning team must pull the other team six feet forward.Swimming Obstacle Race (1900)The athletes had to climb over a pole (杆子) and a row of boats, and then swim under another row of boats.

The judges score each jump by shape and landing besides distance.     Ice hockey is played between two teams.
