Canadian cannonball champ's Mario outfit makes a splash

I might be tempted to watch the Olympic games if cannonballing was an event. Most likely I'd still just play video games instead.

This game is for fat people, isn't it?!!

Not unlikely. New additions to the olympics recently pretty much fall into one of two categories: Over-the-top extreme, or sex appeal

Cannonballs wouldn't be too far out of the former

Cannonball will be just stupid.

I think Fernando's in love...

How do you win Cannonball? Most water displaced?

It looks like he's about to take a poo-poo.

Alex Trebek: "This racing movie with Dom DeLuise told us that yes cannonballs can run." [ no one buzzes in ] "Cannonballs can run." Burt, you might want to guess this. [ Reynolds buzzes in ] Burt Reynolds.

Burt Reynolds: Oh, I don't know.. Shakespeare!

Alex Trebek: [ flabbergasted ] No. [ Connery buzzes in ] Sean Connery.

Sean Connery: I'll not pay this fine, you curd, it's unjust!

Alex Trebek: You don't have to pay the.. [ Lewis buzzes in ] Jerry Lewis.

Jerry Lewis: Cannonballin' Mamim'..

Alex Trebek: Wait, wait, wait.. it sounds like youmight have the right answer! Did you say "Cannon"?

Jerry Lewis: Cannon..

Alex Trebek: Now, say "ball"!

Jerry Lewis: Ball..

Alex Trebek: Put them together..

Jerry Lewis: Cannonballin' Mamin' aigh-yea!

The Olympics can SMD.

I live in Kitchener, near Toronto, and yesterday morning we were watching Breakfast Television out of Toronto and they were doing their live eye on this event.

I didn't get to see who won, but it's funny it made it onto my favourite website.
