Players of <em><a href="http://www.gaiaonline.com">Gaia Online</a></em> will get the chance to live out their sublimated fantasies of being Olympians starting July 21st, the start date of the Rejected Olympics. Unlike the traditional games, the Rejected Olympics will feature such whimsical events as Connect the Dots and Watermelon Chopping, competing in teams to win the gold medal. Fourth place players will take home stale bread. Seriously.<br /><br />The week-long festivities end on July 27th.
