"-Et la pétanque?
-Quoi?
-Il a oublié la pétanque... Il fait le clown pendant 11 minutes et il oublie la pétanque.
-Ah la boulette!"

Tu as oublié la pétanque ! Le meilleur sport de France honnêtement

[brendanwoolford]

In the tour de france anecdots you forgot to mention Eugen Christophe in 1913 that had to walk 14km to a forge to repair his bike after a bad fall and got penalised of 3minutes added to his time because a child helped him put on the forge (at the time cyclist were not allowed any exterior help) he went on to finish 29/59 on that day. I think it's the craziest story I've heard of about the Tour de France

2:24 here in portugal we, uhm, attribute a non-taxable profession to the referee's mother

[Jibasse]

Fencing is a very French sport too ! Even the technical words and the referee language is French.

[GroovingPict]

in Norway we chanted "ut med dommeren, inn med kua" ("out with the ref, in with the cow") whenever we were unhappy with the referee, implying that even a cow could do a better job. I use the past tense, because I dont think it is used much anymore, even among kids, but as someone who was a kid in the 80s and 90s it was pretty ubiquitous back then

Salut Loïc,
Rigolo et talentueux, comme d'habitude! 👋
Juste un petit détail/petite erreur : tu as choisi une bouteille bourguignonne ou de la vallée du Rhône (eh oui, parce que chaque région a sa forme de bouteille, en France! Peut-être un autre sujet de vanne pour une de tes prochaines chroniques?) pour parler du marathon du Médoc : SACRILEGE!!!!
Ils vont pas aimer les Bordelais!!!! 😉😂😂😂

[mireiaortega]

If you're going to talk about French cycling you have to mention the Paris-Roubaix! A 257 km long race where the main difficulty is having to ride through cobbled streets that will put your lower back to test! They even change the course when an old street is paved so that it doesn't lose kms of cobbles

[MrLiakun]

The Béhour is the best sport ever. Big strong dudes wearing medieval armors and weapons, smashing each other in fun and happiness, what a marvelous idea !

[poja]

Loïc, we love you, but you cannot, really cannot consider the subject complete until you talk about LA PéTANQUE.

[JazzlynnRoscoe]

The guy barfing at the end of the marathon after he dedicated his wine bottle to his mum was hilarious 😂

[castorblagueur]

The "force basque" from south west of france do have some interresting features. In the same region, you have a sport closed to squash calle "pelote basque". one of its version involves a "basket launcher" called "chistera" which can help reach amazing ball speed.

[geoduet]

Technically we also have the most well known race of all motorsports with Le Mans

[BioFake]

Le rugby a un ancêtre français nommé la soule qui se jouait village contre village, avec une panse de brebis qu'il fallait envoyer dans le clocher de l'église du village adverse. C'était à peu près la seule règle... ;)

[kiwiandrew]

I'm a kiwi and I was disappointed that the most recent Rugby World Cup final wasn't between France and Ireland....I felt it would've been a better reflection of the rest of the tournament

[nmanjos]

Actually you should do an episode about pétanque

[vukkulvar]

The best part with rugby is the players often having high education.

[cannibalbananas]

Was hoping you'd show us a clip of rugby golf. I'm a visual person & am intrigued by this odd combination

[pernille]

I have run the Médoc marathon disguised as a convoi exceptionnel. My finish time was 5.04 h, and I wasn't the last, that was the Dalton brothers and Lucky Luke, but to be fair they were running chained to eachother. I didn't throw up, it is just small glasses of wine, and little amuse bouchés.

[bobbychouffe]

Maybe forgot the "Pelote Basque" derived from the "Jeu de paume" which is played in west-southern France and northern Spain, the "Pétanque" and the "boule de fort" (wich is kind of a mix between curling and pétanque)
