The recent "Contrived Tie" situation isn't the only weird rule. I came across this one over the weekend:
c.)Procedure after Disqualification:
(i) An athlete may finish the competition if a Technical Official issue a disqualification.
So, even being DSQ doesn't mean your day has to end. :)
Anyone else have a favourite "weird rule"?

it's not about being really good at one sport, it's about being just a little better than average in three. oh, and it's about gadgets. buying lots and lots of expensive gadgets.
