Has anyone else seen Power Slap on TBS yet? It is being promoted as the latest combat sport. It is very simple with few rules. Basically, two cretins try to slap the heck out of each other until one of them goes down. It is not a fight. One guy, the slappee, stands still and the other guy slaps him in the face with an open hand as hard as possible. Then the slappee and the slapper reverse positions. This continues by turns until one of the idiots is knocked out. There are different weight classes like boxing. I think it should become an Olympic event.

Nice, Will Smith could be the official referee!-:)

Yeah, I read an article about it a few days ago. Part of the article was about a female cretin who was badly concussed.

Well, duh!

They could hold speed matches with baseball bats and a "1-2-3 go!" approach.
 
Moe Howard would've been undisputed world champion.

Seriously. I thought this was a joke until I looked it up. All I could do was just look at it and say "Wow...just, wow".

Quite obviously these events are sponsored by Tide Pods (The official snack of Power Slap).

With apologies to Pat Sajak and Vanna White, how about a new game: WHEEL...OF...TORTURE!

(groan)
 
So they've made this an official sport now? Heck, this game has been played in bars, barracks and just about anywhere morons gather for centuries. Usually there's alcohol involved. :rolleyes:
 
I prefer this one

And, some people don't understand why I'm not worried about not having Grand Kids to worry about. What in the Hell is this old world coming to :eek::eek:?

Our local Sheriff's Deputies have a version using guns. They call it "Horseplay".

...... deputies were securing their equipment when one of the deputies discharged a blank round from a Simunition gun in what was determined to be horseplay.

In response, another deputy discharged his weapon, inadvertently striking the deputy in the foot, forgetting he had already transitioned back to his duty weapon ...

Barney Fife! Maybe the sheriff needs to restrict them to one bullet in their shirt pocket.

During the summer of 1970 I was in the Silver Dollar Bar in Cody, WY (I was 17 but that's another story). Two big guys, wrestlers from the junior college in Powell, WY were standing at the bar betting each other which one could knock the other guy down first. Just like the "game" above, one would stand still while the other hit him in the face. Only they were using fists. If the hittee stayed on his feet, the hitter bought the beer. If he went down, the hittee bought the beer. As we were watching the festivities, a little tourist complete with cameras and Hawaiian shirt came through the door just as one guy wound up and smacked the other. The hittee went down. Hard. The tourist stared in wide-eyed disbelief. So one of my companions jumped up and grabbed him from behind and said "You're next!" I never saw anyone scramble to get out of a bar so fast as that tourist did. Guess he had a good story to tell back home anyway.
 
The big Slap-A-Thon championship is to be held in Las Vegas on Saturday. It will be televised, but only on some channel called “Rumble” which I never heard of. So I won’t be watching it. It is absolutely for real. Slap fighting: The next big thing, or unsporting stupidity? | AP News

I would really prefer to watch the women’s events. I think they should be a lot more fun. Yes, there are also women’s Power Slap events.

I just watched a few minutes of the show on demand. One of the stoopidest things I've ever seen on television.
 
One more reason I have all but stopped watching television. If it were not for my wife i would not have the things in the house.
