The phrase “barstool dumping them out dumbest olympic sports” refers to a tongue-in-cheek commentary on sports that are perceived as less popular or exciting in the Olympic Games. It is often used in a humorous context to poke fun at these sports and the perceived lack of interest they generate.
While these sports may not receive the same level of attention as more popular events like track and field or swimming, they still require a great deal of skill and athleticism. In fact, many of these so-called “dumb” sports have a long and rich history in the Olympic Games. For example, tug-of-war was an official Olympic sport from 1900 to 1920, and pelota vasca was featured in the 1900 and 1924 Games. Even underwater hockey, which may seem like a novelty sport, has been played at the World Championships since 1980.
