A highly organized, internationally recognized, massively marketed, thoroughly branded, and extremely expensive series of sporting events is coming to your town. This is not it.
From Saturday January 24 to February 14 2009, InCUBATE and in-city artist-in-residence Anne Elizabeth Moore will host a series of games called the Unlympics. The Unlympics will consist of real sports, fake sports, and things that aren't sports at all—plus serve as a meeting ground to discuss the implications of our city hosting the Olympic Games in 2016. (Although it's seven years off, the city submits a final bid on February 12, 2009.)
