Line 87:
** Odd-vehicle races on ''[[Top Gear]]'' have strict no-contact rules -- which are always forgotten before two laps.
* In ''[[It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia]]'', the episode "The Gang Gives Back" has Dennis, Dee, and Mac forced to do community service by coaching two YMCA youth basketball teams. They all teach their players to use ''copious'' amounts of this, including sticking open safety pins in their wristbands to stab the other team with. Unsurprisingly, the [[Big Game]] at the end is an all-out ''brawl''.
* In ''[[Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman]]'' (episode "Travelling All Stars") we see a baseball match where the professional team's players deliberately injure members of the Colorado Springs team and receive no penalty. (Naturally, Colorado Springs wins anyway.)
* There were a few instances of the ''[[American Gladiators]]'' and the contestants mixing it up in the heat of competition. Once, Turbo actually punched a contestant during Sling Shot.
* ''[[Friday Night Lights]]'' is full of these; in one case Riggins is shown having bloody gashes on his neck stitched up midgame, the implication being that an opponent tried to claw his jugular open.
