'Ninja Warrior' obstacle courses are headed to the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles

There's always a ton of discussion about what is and what isn't an Olympic sport, but it turns out that the newest Olympic sport is also kind of, sort of a TV show.

That's right, kids: "Ninja Warrior" — or at least obstacle courses like those seen on the show — is headed to the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

Obstacle racing will replace equestrian show jumping in the modern pentathlon event, joining fencing, freestyle swimming, laser pistol shooting and cross-country running.
