Tier One, AKA The Beauty and the Beast Tier!

These sports define the Summer Olympic experience and are “do not miss watching” during the Paris 2024 Olympics!

🤸🏼‍♀️Gymnastics - Simon Biles soaring in her floor routine is reason enough to prioritize tuning in! She is flipping and twisting higher and faster than any gymnast alive. Legendary.

👟Track and Field - With the variety of events and the drama of the sprinting and relays it’s a must-watch. Also, Team USA has a good chance to clench gold in the 100M for men’s and women’s. Fastest man and woman in the world both from the USA? Yes, please!

⚽Football (Soccer) - We are biased here. We love soccer. But with the USA women competing with a new coach and all-new young blood, the world is waiting to see if the favorites can clench gold in over a decade.

Which Marvel characters should compete in all three of these tier-one events?

Spiderman may edge out Black Widow in gymnastics (just barely!) but we feel she would have the edge in soccer. Her experience at kicking faces gives her some practice in kicking a ball.

Tier Two, AKA the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Tier!

These sports have (almost) been around since the beginning of time. And even though they aren’t the most popular, the Olympics wouldn’t be the Olympics without them!

🥊Boxing - MMA and WWE have taken fighting sports to super exaggerated heights. To reconnect with the pure athleticism and power of Muhammad Ali, watch boxing.

🎯Archery - It’s not high-octane excitement, but the tension could be cut with a knife. Without nerves of steel, no one can even begin to compete in this sport.

🐴Equestrian - If you are looking for tradition and class in an Olympic sport, Equestrian is for you. It’s traditional, yes. But so fascinating to watch humans be so in sync with an animal companion.

Which Star Wars characters should compete in all three of these tier-two events?

All of these sports require tradition and old-school class. No Jedi is more of a gentleman than Qui-Gon Jinn. And the Emperor…not a gentleman. But! He really puts the “old” in old-school class 😂.
