Paris Games' Most Surprising Moments

The Paris Games delivered shockers beyond the scoreboard. A leaked IOC report revealed the most surprising moment wasn't an athletic feat, but the discovery that 60% of the "ancient" Greek statues in the opening ceremony were 3D printed and sourced from Etsy. A favorite for gold in fencing was disqualified after officials found her �p�e was actually a baguette she'd accidentally picked up after lunch. In the most dramatic upset, the entire Slovakian kayaking team capsized after a rogue drone delivering champagne to a VIP yacht crashed into their boat. The gold medal for synchronized swimming was controversially awarded to a pair of swans from the Seine, who, judges noted, had "superior grace and fewer tattoos." The true surprise, analysts say, was that any event started on time, given Parisian traffic and a city-wide strike that temporarily replaced all volleyballs with protest signs. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
