The Sydney 2000 Paralympics had a similar event (The Paralympics being the global equivalent held just after the Olympics in the same venues).
The Spanish ID basketball team was found to be not mentally challenged. It was within the rules to have one or two not very mentally handicapped players, but actually 10 of the 12 were all normal-functioners.
They got the gold medal, winning the final 87-63 over Russia; apparently, they got all intense and slap down, really going at those mentally-handicapped types.
Then it's like. Why? There is no prize money in the Paralympics. And it can't be for pride, you can't tell people about that, that you were in the Paralympics...
So why? Anyway, they were busted and stripped of their medals and new rules were introduced to prevent this from happening again.
So. Accusations of plagiarism are somewhat silly. Like any good idea, lots of people have it simultaneously.194.112.58.52 21:43, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah he thought he had a foolproof plan to rig the Paralympics.
He would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for those meddling Flids!109.150.226.5 (talk) 09:06, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Shouldn't there be a spoiler warning here? I haven't seen this movie yet, but I know how it will end now. Bummer. I'm going to edit in a spoiler warning. If it isn't right or it isn't in the proper format, then please change it. --Shady Jade (talk) 05:57, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
How can the South Park episode "come first" if the movie was "written and filmed" before the South Park episode was? What part of the South Park episode actually came first? Ari (talk) 03:50, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The movie was written and filmed before the South Park episode but was released into theaters AFTER the South Park episode was televised. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.251.16.218 (talk) 15:11, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm removing the Trivia section because, well, this is an encyclopedia. Encyclopedias don't have trivia sections in their articles.
If someone feels the controversy between South Park and this movie is worthy of inclusion in this article, they're free to add it in a Controversy section. While most news articles relating to that event appear to be archived, there's one from CTV here that's likely be a valid reference. As far as I'm concerned, it was a creative coincidence with the 'controversy' fabricated from a bunch of ' he said/she said ' prattle...not really noteworthy. But it did get the tabloids in a tivvy for about a month, so an interested editor may want to incorporate it into the articles.
