An event that should have been included in tribute to Italy



La Cosa Nostra Biathlon.

Competitors must first wrap a 200lb mannequin in burlap and chains, then
attach concrete blocks. Participants will be DQ'd if the blocks become
detached at any point.

The mannequin is then hurriedly loaded into the trunk of a black sedan and
transported over a 20-mile course to the edge of a river. Time is called
when the mannequin enters the water.

This would be an exhibition event since athletes will deny any participation
in or knowledge of the event.
