We're hitting the Olympics beat hard ahead of Friday night's Opening Ceremonies (only on 12 News).
Wednesday on Twitter, it was #MyOlympicSportWouldBe. Thursday it's #PetOlympicEvents.
Users shared what they thought would be their pet's preferred Olympic events.
Not unlike Wednesday's trend, many pet suggestions related to lazing around, which may say something about our modern habits and those of our pets.
The highlights:
Ben Singer proposed showing some babyface kittens:
