17 days to go....
I don't know, first post for months and my computer explodes....
More Victorian Olympic events...
Forelock tugging
Points are awarded for cheekiness and general obsequiousness. Marks for artistic merit can be awarded to competitors who go for the optional and highly dangerous hat-doffing. This can be deadly and we all remember the tragic incident in which Frederick "Cheeky Rapscallion" O'Rourke was decapitated while attempting the infamous "Reverse Brougham Hat Doff" in a high wind.
Malicious lingering
In which the competitor must lurk around the property of a wealthy gentleman in such a way that the gentleman does not notice him and order his footman to "flog the blackguard". Champion in this event is Bert "Evening Squire" Mitchell who has single-handedly lowered property prices in the Mayfair district while remaining completely unknown to the local peelers.
Syphilis spreading
A popular spectator event which has no redeeming features and leaves the spectator feeling guilty. A bit like women's beach volleyball.
