Raygun is retiring

Australian breaker Rachael Gunn has announced she will retire from competition, citing the viral response to her performance at the Paris Olympics.
Gunn - who is known as B-girl Raygun - failed to get on the scoreboard in all three of her competition rounds in August, with a routine that included unorthodox moves, such as the sprinkler and a kangaroo hop.
The 37-year-old university lecturer's moves catapulted her to global attention and ridicule, spawned conspiracy theories about her qualification, and reignited criticism of breaking's inclusion in the Olympics.
Gunn had initially planned to keep competing but said the saga had been so "upsetting" that she changed her mind.

Damn. And she was just listed as the world’s #1 breakdancer. Respect for going out on top.

I want a black and white shadow shirt of that pose.

Breakdancing should not have been in the Olympics anyways.

It was included in the “culturally significant” sports THAT France requested included

Nike has Air Jordans with the michael Jordan logo...
New Balance should come out with a line of shoes with that as their logo.
Also... New Balance is probably like... "Well, gee, thanks for wearing our shoes."

She’s the only athlete from the Paris Olympics I can name. Didn’t watch a second of the games but could not avoid Raygun and she was glorious!

You can pretty much thank Raygun for single handedly showing everyone how ridiculous it was as a. “sport.”
