11m shootouts in soccer. And I know for a fact that drinking some alcohol was a thing in endurance cycling, IIRC it supposedly works because it makes it easier to push through the pain. Which sounds insane and self-destructive, but that's kinda par for the course for endurance cycling.
Also, just 50 years ago many sports just weren't that professional; you just didn't need to be at absolute peak fitness in soccer, especially not when your team was a lot better than your opponent's.
