The skiing-and-sniping thing from the Winter Olympics is pretty cool. Not sure what it's called.

Biathlon.

I also somewhat agree with too many events, but more about the variations of the same event.

Quote from wikipedia about the swimming events:


Similar to the 2020 program format, swimming features a total of 37 events (18 each for men and women and 1 mixed event), including two 10 km open-water marathons. The following events were contested (all pool events are long-course, and distances are in meters unless stated):

Freestyle: 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, and 1,500;
Backstroke: 100 and 200;
Breaststroke: 100 and 200;
Butterfly: 100 and 200;
Individual medley: 200 and 400;
Relays: 4 100 free, 4 200 free; 4 100 medley (men's, women's, and mixed)
Marathon: 10 kilometres

Same with ice skating during winter:

500m
1000m
1500m
3000m (women only)
5000m
10000m (men only)
Mass start
Team pursit

And then you also have the short track ice skating too:
500m
1000m
1500m
2000m relay (mixed)
3000m relay (women only)
5000m relay (men only)

That seems... extreme.

Art competitions formed part of the modern Olympic Games during its early years, from 1912 to 1948. Medals were awarded for works of art inspired by sport, divided into five categories: architecture, literature, music, painting, and sculpture.
