Hilarious Alternative Olympic Boat Race Commentary (slightly NSFW) (UPDATE: Back up!)
Irish readers may be familiar with Hardy Bucks, a mockumentary series which originated online. Seems like one of its characters had a go at providing an alternative commentary at one of the perhaps less dramatic Olympic sports.
UPDATE: It’s been yoinked… The IOC didn’t see the funny side:
Vimeo has removed or disabled access to the following material as a result of a third-party notification by International Olympic Committee claiming that this material is infringing: Boats.
NEXT UPDATE: Wired have re-upped it.
Sweet, the way commentary should be done. There’s a dude in NZ doing live alternative games audio commentary for all kinds of events, I think he usually does rugby. Funny stuff, just toking up and smashing beer and calling sports. He’s on http://www.youcommentate.com ..
Great! Shame the IOC got rid of this one though.
