[edit] Thong_Grabbin'

Delete. Although this article is actually fairly well-written, I think this is basically a hoax. Michael ^(talk) 22:26, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep - *just* barely enough evidence that it's real. [1], [2] and [3]. Other google hits (21 total) all point to Wikipedia or articles related to it. But using "thong grabbing" gets 358 hits, including this [4], this [5], this [6] and this [7]. Most of the hits for the latter refer to something to do with women's underwear. Okay, so all of the hits are some kind of forum or blog or something, but it goes back long enough to say its real. So it's definitely not a hoax. The next questions is if its notable enough. It probably goes by a number of other names too, so I suggest it probably is. Zordrac (talk) Wishy Washy Darwikinian Eventualist 06:16, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Most of the references cited by Zordrac do not appear to have to do with the sport described in this article. If better evidence is provided, I'll reconsider my vote. --Metropolitan90 06:59, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. It does seem to be a hoax, and as the previous poster states, Zordrac's references don't really back it up. -- ManekiNeko | Talk 00:52, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
