And the last Olympics was closed to the public because of covid. So this was the first chance for people to attend and use it for their insta’s and self promotion.
Edit: going out on the cycling is worse than the all day diving to me. Massive anti-climactic for sure.
Yeah, is Snoop mainly there because adidas sponsor him?
Didn’t Snoop do a TV show covering the Olympics last time? So has a big interest in it all now. That and probably adidas is why he’s there.
Oh and he’s performing at the closing tonight so mainly that, haha.
He’s getting half a million a day from NBC, just to be there.
We’re talking about him so money well spent I guess.
His contributions are gold.
Skip to 30s for his badminton commentary:rofl:
The impossible contradiction with Artistic Swimming is that it’s hugely draining on the body, holding your breath underwater, doing synchronised moves, etc., but no matter how physically taxing it is, it’s still hilariously naff.
Did I just hear them say on the BBC that they are looking at e-sports to be included in LA in 4 years time?
The Stade De France is wonky in relation to the streets parallel to it and its driving me mental
Just read up and they are looking into it but can’t be violent or shooting games.
So that one where you make a cake then.
Streetfighter II
Ok non violent. Mariokart or Tetris
FIFA then thats dead.
Might as well just go the whole hog and include Pokemon.
I’d like to see Olympic ear pulling though.
The Australian breakdancer
So breakdancing was a one time thing at the Olympics? It’s definitely not in the next one in LA and looks like it won’t be coming back at all?
i’m not sure i’ve saw any clips of the winners, just this sheila non-stop.
Only just noticed the Mens street finals are finally online. Footage from this Olympics has been so strange in being released.
Not seen any but from that still, why does she look like she’s slipped over doing a clean up on isle 3 in the Co-op?
Excellent!
So good that she just went for it and did her.
And in doing so denied a spot to somebody who’d put in some effort. Yep, real good move there.
I understand your sentiment, but this is the Olympics. Not a primary school sports day.
