I have just wasted several hours of my life watching the dressage and I’m sure some goon can answer these questions:

1. What the gently caress?

2. Horse dancing but the humans win the medal? If I won a dancing competition but some parasite clinging onto my back got given some gold I’d be thinking what the gently caress

3. My understanding of horses is that they think of ants and die, these ones are dancing to queen?

4. The gold medal winner is literally a chinless hapsburg and the British medal winner looks like the kind of aristocrat that just really thought mr hitler was a good chap, there’s no question here, this is the people I associate with horses

5. Who is brushing these horses and are they happy with their lives

6. Why do the scores go to three decimal places, that’s a score basically out of ten thousand

Thank you for your answers to these puzzling questions olympic goons

Clone horses would at least make it an actual skill based thing rather than just having a better horse, the winner is surely the one who has the best horse? Randomise horses? Have all the horses cloned and trained by the same guy? Do it with wild horses?

Edit: thank you for the answers!

Eliminate this sport.

Despite all the excellent info given in this thread to answer my questions, it shouldn’t be eliminated because it isn’t a sport. Eliminate this thing.
