Perhaps I spoke too soon...

I said earlier that there's no place for drum corps in Olympic competition. I stand by that. But meeting a new sport today has me willing to accept a slight revision.

Watching the Olympics, I came across group rhythmic gymnastics for the first time. The women are competing on balls right now, but I learned that ribbons and hoops is also an Olympic competition. This immediately got me thinking towards colorguard making its way into the Olympics. After all, with the apparatuses already in competition, why not add rifles, sabres, flags, and batons?
