A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MODERATORS
Most sports are worse when you add in animal cruelty imo
Texas Hold 'Em
Chess without horses is just lacking something
Donkey basketball is enough of a thing that I’ve seen it played multiple times with my own eyes.
Although it’s mostly for comedy rather than genuine sport.
Ice Dancing
Water Polo
With seahorses.
Bowling
Math Olympiads (if the horses had to answer the questions, like Clever Hans).
Archery
Dudes will see this and be like "hell yeah!"
Diving. No...wait...they did that already.
Baseball
Bowling
Diving. I'm still not convinced that this is real: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_horse

Chess.
Shooting. Preferably with an equestrian event style course. Would be rather entertaining I think but spectator seating would be…. Complicated.
Politics
I agree. A good jousting tournament in place of traditional votes would be great. Put up or shut up.
I do not enjoy hockey, but let's not for a second pretend that Polo is better than hockey.
I don't see anywhere that was said.
I enjoy hockey, but I agree here.
Basketball
It kind of already exists

Oh, oh, let's have human basketball played with a goat carcass, we could call it Buzbasket.
Ice hockey
Curling, ice skating, synchronized swimming. It'd be hard to find a sport that wouldn't be improved by horses.
Heliskiing
Roller derby
Tennis
Them poor horse knees.
Greco-Roman wrestling.
I wanna see a horse get suplexed.
I wanna see a horse DO a suplex
Skydiving.
