Candy Ass Brits Make Laser Tag An Olympic Sport

Bans real bullets. Actually, it's not even manly enough to be called laser tag.

Laser guns will replace traditional air pistols in the modern pentathlon at the 2012 London Olympics after a successful trial at the inaugural Youth Olympics.

The technology will reduce the cost of the shooting element of the five-event sport by two thirds, while the improved safety could mean new venues are used. 

Klaus Schormann, president of world governing body the UIPM, said: "We will have laser shooting for London. 

"We can now hold competitions in parks and shopping malls."
